    PICATINNY ARSENAL, N.J. – Cub Scouts from Pack 69 in Boonton Township, N.J., accompanied their peers in Boy Scout Troop 69, in witnessing firsthand the cutting-edge science and engineering that powers the nation's defense during a visit to Picatinny Arsenal, Feb. 18.

    The visit, aimed at sparking interest in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), provided the young scouts with a memorable look into the vital work performed in support of the American warfighter.

    The scouts were particularly captivated in meeting Maj. Gen. John T. Reim, the installation’s highest ranking official, who serves as both Picatinny Arsenal Commanding General and Portfolio Acquisition Executive Agile Sustainment & Ammunition.
