Airman 1st Class Hannah Bartlett, 108th Wing, New Jersey Air National Guard, meets with Courtney Mitchell, a teacher at the Brighton Avenue School, Atlantic City, N.J., during the Read Across America event, Feb. 24, 2015. Five NJANG Airmen participated in this year’s event at the school. Read Across America is an 18-year-old national initiative sponsored by the National Education Association to encourage young people to read by holding special reading events involving military and community members. The events, which are held at schools across the United States, are timed to coincide with the birthday of renowned children’s author Theodor Seuss Geisel, better known as Dr. Seuss. In New Jersey, Soldiers and Airmen of the New Jersey National Guard volunteer to participate in these events. The Department of Defense encourages all members of the Armed Services to participate in the Read Across America program. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by Master Sgt. Mark C. Olsen/Released)
