When the opportunity to train with soldiers on Fort Campbell presented itself, several students volunteered for the event.

Armed with cameras, digital voice recorders, pens and Steno pads, the students trained in eight-hour shifts with several different platoons from Tuesday, Sept 15., until Wednesday Sept. 23. It was a learning experience for both the soldiers and the students.

The soldiers learned to be ready to talk to media at anytime while operating overseas. The students learned how to deal with the soldiers as they strive to successfully achieve their objectives.

“As a student reporter this was an ecperience that I will never forget.” said Mateen Sidiq, Multimedia Editor of The All State. “But as a bystander you do have an idea of what soliders go through to protect our contry.”
