OPERATION OVERNIGHT
Over November 3-5th, over 50 members of our troop embarked on an unforgettable adventure aboard the historic USS Yorktown. As part of Operation Overnight, we spent three incredible days and two nights immersed in the life of a sailor.
From exploring the ship's inner workings to sleeping in authentic Navy berthing compartments, we gained a deep appreciation for the courage and dedication of our military. We learned about the ship's pivotal role in World War II and its subsequent service, including the recovery of the Apollo 8 astronauts.
With hands-on activities, engaging presentations, and the thrill of exploring such a massive vessel, this experience has ignited a passion for history and service in our young men. It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
