This week 80 high school students are discovering new heights in Colorado Springs, Col. at our USAFA STEM/Engineering & Construction Camp. These moments were captured from the first two days during activities in which campers competed in team exercises, construction of concrete beams, a visit to the United States Air Force Academy, and there is so much more planned for the campers through the end of the week! Watch and read this segment from Fox 21 Southern Colorado News to see how the camp inspires high schoolers in STEM: https://lnkd.in/gXhsYnAj #STEM #SAMEcamps #AimHigh

After nearly 50 years managing design and construction projects in Israel, Europe District formally transferred responsibility of that effort to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Middle East District during a ceremony earlier this month in Israel. Europe District is part of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, North Atlantic Division, and the Middle East District is part of USACE's Transatlantic Division. The ceremony paid tribute to the North Atlantic Division’s legacy and focused on the importance of this new alignment under the Transatlantic Division in further strengthening the partnership with U. S. Central Command (USCENTCOM) and the US Army Corps of Engineers. Read more about the history of the mission and the transfer here: https://lnkd.in/g3KUa_qT U.S. Embassy Jerusalem
