It’s with great pride that we had the pleasure of honoring Hunter Detrick on October 2 with the 2025 National Guard Volunteer Award!

Hunter was nominated for his volunteer service here in Illinois, where he first earned recognition as the state winner. He then went on to win at the regional level before competing in the national board and interview process and coming out on top! Among outstanding youth from all 54 states and territories, Hunter set himself apart.

This is the FIRST time an Illinois nominee has gone on to win this national award, making this an incredible achievement for both Hunter and our state!

Hunter is truly the definition of a model young leader. He serves as President of the Youth Advisory Council for the Illinois National Guard Youth Program all while being a three sport athlete, and maintaining a 4.0 GPA! You quite literally could not ask for a better example of young excellence!

A special thank you to Colonel Metzdorff, Chief of Staff, for presenting this well-deserved award to Hunter.

To top it all off, Hunter is the son of Wh***ey Company’s very own First Sergeant Beau Detrick giving our Warrior family even more reasons to celebrate!

Congratulations, Hunter! You’ve made your family, Wh***ey Company, and the entire Illinois National Guard proud!

Last month, we had the absolute pleasure of presenting this award to SGT Rainey! Through his hard work, dedication, and commitment to the mission, he achieved the outstanding accomplishment of enlisting three new Soldiers into the Illinois Army National Guard before the 15th of the month!

SGT Rainey continues to set the standard and make a positive impact on both our organization and the lives of the future Soldiers he serves. Congratulations, SGT Rainey keep up the great work and continue leading from the front! 💪🇺🇸

Big day SGT OJ!

1. Mission Maker Award — for making his yearly recruiting mission early! What made this one special was that everyone on the team had input on the items inside, making it a true team recognition of his accomplishment.

2. Quarter Award Winner — 4 quarters in a row! The flag carries the words “Take What Is Yours,” a motto that has become meaningful to our team. Winning this award four straight quarters shows that OJ continues to set the standard.

3. Fight to the 15th Award — earned by putting 3 enlistments in before the 15th. The axe represents putting in the work, attacking the mission, and getting after it when it matters.

Excellence is the standard. Discipline is the way.

Couldn’t be more happy with how Drill turned out for August. Land Navigation is an essential part of any soldiers tool kit. This month we mastered it. Join the team, be better than before, become the author to your next chapter.

Excellence is our legacy! Recently multiple of our former RSP recruits competed in the Illinois army national guard combatives tournament.

It was the 2026 Illinois Army national guard Adjutant Generals Combatives tournament host at American jujutsu in Springfield Illinois. This was 2 day tournament style event for service members to demonstrate a their MACP skills to see who is the best. This was also a state wide battalion competition. With a team event that evolved using proper MACP skills to execute a security checkpoint inspection in a vehicle. This resulted the 2/130th Infrantry battalion to take first in the event.

Congratulations to SPC Madinger and SPC Erye of HHC, 2-130th, and SGT Ski of D Co, 2-130th, for taking 1st place in their respective weight classes!

This is not so much a testament to the success of Wh***ey Company but 2-130th and the fine culture they’ve cultivated there. These soldiers may have started with us but this excellence has continued wherever they go! These Soldiers showed up ready to compete and represented the 2-130th with strength, discipline, and a winning mindset. Great job gentlemen!

Another outstanding drill weekend in the books for the Warriors! 🪖

Saturday was packed with valuable training as our Soldiers sharpened their knowledge through SHARP and EO briefings, learned the fundamentals of properly packing a ruck, they got the opportunity to actually complete a ruck with their recently packed equipment, and strengthened their mental toughness with resiliency training. These classes build disciplined, prepared, and resilient Soldiers who are ready for whatever comes next.

Sunday, our Warriors put those lessons into action with water survival training, challenging themselves both mentally and physically while building confidence in the water. They swam with their weapons and rucks and even completed a relay race in the water to finish strong!

Warriors fight. Warriors win. Congratulations to everyone who reached another milestone this weekend. The future of Wh***ey Company is looking stronger than ever.

A huge congratulations goes out to PFC Lammers, who earned the title of Iron Soldier over her entire AIT company of 198 Soldiers! This is an incredible accomplishment that reflects the dedication and grit we strive for every day!

Ruck packing experts PFC Sopczack and Ecford in action!

Also, congratulations to Baker, Zimmerman, Brasher, Flores, and Carlton on their well-earned promotions. Your commitment to excellence continues to set the standard, and we look forward to seeing your continued success.

Finally, we are proud to welcome home PVTs Yeagle, Wells, Alexander, Lammers, and Holmes after successfully graduating their initial training. Your hard work has paid off, and we’re excited to have you back with the team!

Building tomorrow’s leaders starts long before they put on the uniform.

This week, SGT Bevis had the opportunity to spend time at the Christopher High School Football Camp, helping young athletes sharpen their skills, build confidence, and reinforce the values that lead to success both on and off the field.

From discipline and teamwork to perseverance and leadership, these athletes put in the work and showed exactly what it means to rise to a challenge. We’re proud to support our local communities and invest in the next generation.

Thank you to Christopher High School for having us out. We can’t wait to see what this team accomplishes this season!
