We are aware of claims on social media that a 1st Armored Division unit is not following the Secretary of War directive on voting. The Soldiers of Ready First are hard at work forward deployed in Europe and sharpening their warfighting skills at the Joint Multinational Readiness Center in Hohenfels, Germany. Like every unit in the 1st Armored Division, 1st Brigade will comply with all Secretary of War directives. Brigade leadership will provide Soldiers a voting stand-down day as soon as possible following the completion of this major, pre-scheduled training event.
