Sixty-three Soldiers are mentally and physically pushed to their limits though a 16-hour event encompassing 12 rigorous stations that tested the Soldiers' abilities as they all attempt to join the Order of the Spur.

On April 18, United States Forces-Iraq, Special Troops Battalion held a "Spur Ride" on Victory Base Compound to provide Soldiers an opportunity to participate in the Cavalry tradition and earn their golden spurs while deployed to Iraq.
