JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO, Texas -- A grueling competition was held June 12-13 at Camp Bullis to determine who would earn the title of Brooke Army Medical Center Best Medic.

In the end, Army Sgt. Samantha Delgado, department of radiology technician, and Army Sgt. Kevin Ramirez, a laboratory technician from the department of pathology and area lab services, were victorious.

The event included the Army combat fitness test, warrior training, obstacle course, M-16 qualification, warrior tasks and battle drills, day and night land navigation, a Tactical Combat Casualty Care assessment and 20 kilometer foot march.

Ramirez and Delgado will go on to compete in the Regional Health Command-Central Best Medic competition later this year.
