From 17–19 April, the Tiger Battalion participated in a Combined Field Training Exercise at Fort Dix with cadets from Rutgers and Seton Hall University. Over three days, cadets executed tactical STX lanes, providing a critical opportunity to refine skills ahead of MS3 Cadet Summer Training.

Cadets gained hands-on experience with radios and weapon systems while integrating with an unfamiliar training population and operating in a dynamic training environment. Exposure to new peers and cadre allowed for military development through the establishment of platoon cohesion, detailed evaluations, and mentorship.

This diverse and challenging experience strengthened tactical proficiency and adaptability, serving as a strong foundation for Advanced Camp. Tiger Battalion cadets performed at a high level throughout the exercise, demonstrating their readiness to excel at Fort Knox.
