“This investment illustrates that an assignment in the Far North is not a hindrance. It’s a competitive advantage for our Soldiers, who don’t endure, but they thrive."

“When subzero cold, winter darkness or summer wildfire smoke disrupts outdoor physical training across the Interior, this facility will ensure that our physical readiness training endures and continues without interruption," said Brig. Gen. Reggie Harper, deputy commanding general (support), 11th Airborne Division.

Army leaders and community representatives celebrate the Fryar Fieldhouse opening Oct. 5, on Fort Wainwright, Alaska, completing a fitness complex that supports year-round physical training, health and readiness for Soldiers of the 11th Airborne Division and other tenant units. The 72,500-square-foot fieldhouse joins the existing fitness center and aquatics facility in the Pvt. Elmer E. Fryar Fitness Complex.

"This Stand Down will ensure time for Service member training, processing, and submission of Federal Post Card Applications (FPCA) if Service members choose to vote by absentee ballot. Commanders must allow time for Service members to coordinate with their Unit Voting Assistance Officers (VAO), review specific State voting requirements, complete voter registration, and submit the FPCA to guarantee timely receipt of their ballots. In addition, commanders must afford time for Service members to vote during the duty day if the Service member so chooses," Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said.

- For all your voting questions, visit Federal Voting Assistance Program - FVAP or FVAP.gov

The seasons are changing in Alaska, and the rock climbing season is coming to an end.

Last weekend marked ODR’s final outdoor rock climbing trip of the season at Grapefruit Rocks. But the climbing doesn’t have to stop. ODR has an indoor climbing wall where you can keep building your skills through the winter.

As rock climbing gives way to ice, ODR is also looking at opportunities for ice climbing trips in the future.

Call ODR at 907-361-6349 to learn about upcoming trips and rentals.

Keep climbing. Keep exploring the Last Frontier.
