• Army sergeant to face court-martial in Ga. base shooting that injured 5 (wistv.com) — Residents should know that the sergeant accused of shooting five people at Fort Stewart in August will face a general court-martial on multiple attempted murder and assault charges. Prosecutors say fellow soldiers quickly disarmed him and rendered life‑saving aid, and Army leaders have since honored several Fort Stewart soldiers for their actions. The case now moves into pretrial proceedings under a military judge.

• Army Year in Review 2025 (militaryspot.com) — Fort Stewart’s 3rd Infantry Division and Winn Army Community Hospital teams are highlighted nationally for their response to this summer’s active shooter incident on post, with the Army Secretary visiting to personally honor them. The broader year‑in‑review piece also covers recruiting gains, new soldier policies, historic unit recognitions, and the Army’s 250th birthday celebrations. Local soldiers’ actions are showcased as a standout moment of 2025.
