Welcome to the online home of BATTLEHARD. I am Major Chris Rowe. I took command of B Co., 1-3IN (The Old Guard) on 02 December 2010. It has only been a short time that I have been in command of this fine company and they are already exceeding my greatest expectations. Over the past two months I have watched them perform superbly during in-door CERTEPs (Ceremonial Training and Evaluation Program) and deploy to Fort A.P. Hill, Va., for two very intense, and cold, tactical training exercises. It is truly an honor to serve these fine Soldiers.

During the coming months we will begin to see an increase in both our memorial affairs and ceremonial mission and our tactical training exercises. On the immediate horizon, BATTLEHARD will deploy to Kuwait in support of Kuwait National Day and Liberation Day Anniversaries. This is an exciting and extremely rare opportunity for our Soldiers to experience a different culture and participate in a very high visibility ceremony. Bravo Company was specifically selected for this mission due to their superb execution during the aforementioned CERTEPs.

If you have any questions about Bravo Company please feel free to contact myself, 1SG Holmes, or our FRG Leader, Mrs. Lindsay Green.

Battlehard!
MAJ Christopher M. Rowe
