On Thursday July 11, 1SG Collins, Chaplin Hunter, and Captain Yeatts took a group of middle school campers to Fort Jackson. Upon arrival, SSG Wilson, a Drill Sergeant at the Basic Combat Training Command, escorted our group to a battalion graduation ceremony, The Fort Jackson Military Museum, trainee barracks, and Victory Tower. SFC Odgen, a member of the cadre, gave campers an informative description of Victory Tower and how it works to build trainee confidence and teamwork. In the museum, campers attended a guided tour that showed the history of Fort Jackson and the evolution of weapons, uniforms, and Army combat training.
