Currently on a tour including five locations, the Army All Terrain Fighting Vehicle Team made their third stop at Belvidere High School to showcase Army assets and create excitement about the Army. They brought a Polaris RZR and an electric motorcycle and took up positions in Mr. Tillman’s Shop area for the day.

“It’s always great to have the Armed Forces come in and talk to students about considering the military as a career path,” Mr. Tillman said. “We want to give the students as many options as possible.”

“We had a good turnout,” said Staff Sergeant Crishbaum. “About 100 students showed up today. This is a great opportunity to showcase the diversity of the United States Army.”
