Our Task Force Desert Knights Morale, Welfare, and Recreation (MWR) volunteers have been hard at work to create fun events for our Soldiers and partners to participate in. From a ping pong tournament, comedy, bingo, karaoke, and painting, there have been a variety of activities for Soldiers to stay connected.

Task Force Desert Knights observed Memorial Day by conducting a Murph workout: weight and unweighted 1-mile run, 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 squats, and another 1-mile run. This excellent team-building event gave the participants a moment to reflect on all the sacrifices the United States Armed Forces have made leading up to today.

Task Force Desert Knight Building Strong and Ready Teams (BSRT) group has been actively providing morale events, such as hiking and making smores, across multiple EUCOM locations. From Germany to Latvia, these team building events have provided respite for Soldiers across the formation.
