ROTC Lab Day

UNL ROTC cadets took part in an April 3 training mission to "rescue" a downed pilot on the grounds of Doane College in Crete. Flying on UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters - piloted by members of the Nebraska Army Air National Guard - the cadets set up an ambush for "enemy" troops, secured a communications tower, and rescued the pilot. The public was also invited to attend the event, after which Capt. Rob Ford, affiliate with Military Science, discussed the exercise with youth who attended.
