CREating a way forward: COVID Recovery Element And Cadet Reintegration Plan

Despite an unprecedented past year and a half, Cadet Summer Training (CST) is well underway training future U.S. Army officers.

COVID-19 precautions have been put into place such as requiring Cadets to wear masks for a 10-day monitoring period. Cadets will also be tested upon their arrival to Fort Knox. Before exiting the 10-day monitoring period, pool testing methods are used. Pool testing is a method that tests various Cadets from groups composed of the people that interact most closely together. If a certain group has multiple people testing positive then more testing will be done. Read More
