To complete the well-rounded program, the junior class cadets attend a six-week summer camp at Fort Lewis, Washington. Here, the knowledge gained in the classroom is applied to practical exercises in the field. With their broad background in military affairs, graduates of the General Military Science Program receive diversified and challenging assignments in line with their interests and experience. Members of the 1957 graduating class have been commissioned in a variety of the branches of the Army for their six months or two years of active duty.
