November 8th is National STEM day. A time to encourage young people to view careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics as cool options for employment.
To promote #STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math), female Soldiers from the 74th Ordnance Company and 71st Chemical Company, 303rd Ordnance Battalion (EOD), 8th Military Police Brigade, 8th Theater Sustainment Command joined the Girl Scouts of Hawai'i STEM fest at the Pacific Aviation Museum Pearl Harbor.
Girl Scouts learned firsthand about chemical detection and how EOD technicians use robots to protect themselves and communities.
Both the U.S. Army and Girl Scouts strive to spark interest in STEM early on to build a pipeline of future STEM professionals.
The legacy of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) STEM related innovation includes the Internet, the Global Positioning System (GPS), virtual reality, autonomous vehicles, and cloud computing. (U.S. Army video by Capt. John D. Howard Jr., 8th TSC Public Affairs)
