Cadets enrolled in the Virginia Army National Guard’s Simultaneous Membership Program conduct training during a three-day field training exercise held April 22-24, 2022, at Fort Pickett, Virginia. Over the course of the weekend, the cadets zeroed on the M4 carbine, and focused on basic warrior tasks and battle drills. Approximately 70 cadets from universities across the state participated in the event, which was supported by around 15 Soldiers assigned to the Virginia Army National Guard’s Recruiting and Retention Battalion.
