Enterprise High School students visited the home of Army aviation during a “Meet Your Army” event earlier this month.
Twenty-six Army junior ROTC cadets, primarily seniors, experienced a busy day engaged with Army aviation soldiers, trying their hands at flight simulators, an MRE lunch, an Army Aviation museum scavenger hunt and a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter flight.
“It exposes cadets to all the job opportunities and different careers in the aviation field,” including civilian opportunities, said retired Sgt. Maj. Gary Price, Enterprise High School Army JROTC instructor.
