The event’s intent was to provide the high-school-age students possible future career opportunities in the Army, specifically in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as well as discussing opportunities in the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields of study. Cadets listened to a command brief provided by the District Commander and presentations by Honolulu District’s C2F project manager and project engineer about the multi-billion dollar project. Following the briefings cadets asked questions and were able to view the project site from the trailer’s exterior deck.
