Education Briefs Cadet completes jump school
Tarik B. Jensen has graduated from the three-week airborne training course, also known as "jump school," at the U.S. Army Airborne School in Fort Benning, Columbus, Ga.
The airborne school allows Army ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) cadets attending host colleges and universities to earn their jump wings. After completing the course as qualified paratroopers, which includes one day and one night jump off C-130 and C-141 transport aircraft, cadets return to their college or university ROTC program to pursue a commission of second lieutenant in the Army.
Jensen, who is the son of Cheri Jensen of Liberty Lake, is a student at Washington State University.
