Army 1st Lt. Melvin Blackwell (left) and Capt. James McVeigh (right) tie "swiss sea"’ rappel rigging during a ROTC field training exercise here, April 13. Both officers, who are part of the North Carolina National Guard Recruiting and Retention Battalion’s Officer Strength Management section, took part as instructors in the training in order to provide general information about the N.C. Guard and the benefits of joining the organization. The training consisted of rappelling, a confidence and obstacle course, land navigation and other basic soldier skills. “This is a great opportunity to meet and greet with ROTC leadership and give the programs a chance to put a name with a face when dealing with the North Carolina Army National Guard,” said McVeigh.
