\"AustinClarksville, TN<\/strong> – On Wednesday, October 30th, four UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters will land on the Austin Peay State University (APSU) campus for a special, joint training exercise between the University\u2019s Governors Guard ROTC program and the Tennessee National Guard.<\/p>\n

Four UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters will land at Austin Peay State University as part of a joint training exercise with the Tennessee National Guard and APSU Governors Guard ROTC. (APSU)<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

The helicopters are scheduled to land on the Dunn Center lawn around 8:00am, and APSU cadets will spend the next few hours conducting loading and off-loading training.<\/p>\n

At 8:00am on Friday, November 1st, the four Black Hawk helicopters will return to campus the Dunn lawn to transport APSU cadets to their Fall 2019 field exercises.<\/p>\n

A similar training took place in September 2019, when three Tennessee National Guard helicopters transported Austin Peay State University\u2019s ROTC cadets to Milan, Tennessee. The University\u2019s Governors Guard program is one of the best in the nation, placing eighth among ROTC programs last year at the Sandhurst global military skills competition at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, New York.<\/p>\n

The program has also won an unprecedented seven MacArthur Awards over the years. That award, presented by Cadet Command and the Gen. Douglas MacArthur Foundation, recognizes the top eight programs in the country each year. The award is based on a combination of the achievement of the school\u2019s commissioning mission, its cadets\u2019 performance and standing on the command\u2019s National Order of Merit List and its cadet retention rate.<\/p>\n

Recently, the Governors Guard sent three cadets to the Sabalauski Air Assault School at Fort Campbell Kentucky, two cadets to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point Cadet Summer Training, two cadets to Army Airborne School in Georgia, a cadet to Army Mountain Warfare School in Vermont and one cadet to the U.S. Army\u2019s Jungle Warfare School in Hawaii.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
