PHS Senior Maps Out
Future In The Army
Roy Jackson, a senior
at Perry High School,
has already made plans
to begin a practical
career in automotive
repair - he’s enlisted in
the U.S. Army for
guaranteed training in
that mechanical
specialty.
Jackson, currently a
member of the Army’s
Delayed Entry Program -
- an option through which
young people can reserve
an Army training slot
immediately but delay
reporting for active duty
for up to a year, is
scheduled to begin active
service June 17, 1980. He
will report to Fort Dix,
New Jersey for basic
combat training then to
Aberdeen Proving
Ground, Maryland for his
advanced automotive
instruction. He has also
been guaranteed a first
permanent duty
assignment to Fort Hood,
Texas at the completion
of his training.
Roy, the son of Adam
and Vanessa Jackson of
Perry, enlisted with the
assistance of Staff
Sergeant Larry Canning
of the Warner Robins
Recruiting Station at 309
Houston Mall. “Army
enlistment is kind of a
tradition in my family,”
Jackson noted. “My older
of area residents -- both
health care providers and
consumers - labored
over the past several
months to refine the
Central Georgia Health
brother, who has served
in the Army for 19 years
is currently stationed in
San Antonio, Texas, and
my two sisters, both
Army enlistees, are
assigned in New Jersey
and California,” he ex
plained. “Another
brother previously
served in the Army, too,”
Jackson added. “I spoke
with all my brothers and
sisters before I enlisted
and they all recom
mended Army service
very highly. They said
that enlistment has
helped them im
measurably in terms of
job experience and
developing self-discipline
and responsibility.”
Jackson also hopes to
develop through con
tinued formal education
*Knights Os Yore’
Pack 216’s Theme
"Knights of Yore” was
the theme of Pack 216’s

helmets, shields, swords,
and tunics. There was a
parade of the “Knights”

scouts with hand made
horns. Den 2 presented a
skit, “Knights for Hire,”
which was enjoyed by all.

evening was an inspiring
ceremony presenting the
Arrow of Light (Cub

Mrs. Juan Thompson.
Cubmaster Jack Stanley
presented the award in a
darkened room with only
a glowing Arrow of Light

"Besides the important
participation of many
during his enlistment. He
plans to take college
courses through the
Army’s in-service tuition.
While he hopes to
eventually earn a
bachelor’s degree in
engineering, Jackson
pointed out that his
automotive instruction
will offer him a
marketable skill to
minimize future career
uncertainties.
“I’m looking for a
future - that’s why I
joined the Army,” he
commented. “I may even
make a career out of
Army service, itself.
That’s just another one of
the options that Army
enlistment has' made
available to me,” he
concluded.
