Simulated Deployment


During the summer of 2014, the United States military conducted its last Leadership Development and Assessment Course summer training program ever. For part of the program, college cadets participated in a simulated deployment to the enemy city of "Atropia." Cadets lived and trained as if they were active duty soldiers during the deployment, when in reality, they were just hidden in the hills of Fort Knox, Kentucky. Each cadet had their unique reason for joining the military, and every cadet who participated in the program worked towards the same goal: becoming a U.S. army second lieutenant.
