Military Club students Mallory Thaxton (Greenville, KY) and Bret Ditmore (Louisville, KY)

On Thursday, March 9th, John G.Dills,  Staff Sargeant/Military Recruiter for the United States Army pulled into the Muhlenberg Job Corps Center driving an interactive semi-trailer.  At first, the students thought it was a former student visiting to show off his new truck; but little did they know, they were about to learn about the Army’s history and participate in interactive military games.

Above, find student Denver Hamilton, Heavy Equipment Operator student from Chesapeake, Virginia competing with the interactive game system.  In order to compete, the students had to get dressed in proper military gear before they could handle weaponry and compete at war.

The army recruiters also gave the students physical challenges including burpees, sit-ups, and push ups for Army Swag.
