After
basic training, every soldier moves on to their next assignment. This is called
Advanced Individual Training, or AIT. Here they learn the specific skills necessary
to acheive success in their Army career. There are over 200 different jobs in
the Army and every one has an AIT class. Heather and Steve are completing their
AIT at Ft. Meade in Maryland. Here they are with U. S. Army Student Company
and attend the Defense Information School. They are learning to report news,
talk on the radio, and write and produce spot advertisements for the Army. Heather
and Steve are 46 Romeos, otherwise known as Broadcast Journalists.

We
had alot of fun hanging out with the soldiers in student company. It was a little
like college all over again. We played games, went to movies and did the normal
things that Army students do. Everyone made our time at Student Co. special.
Thank you.
