    MEMPHIS —— The U.S. Army routes its STEM semi-trailer with hands-on education and entertainment activities showcasing at local high schools, September 8-11.

    The Army’s STEM semi-trailer, or AS9, demonstrates vast STEM careers offered by the Army to students and working adults.

    “We use the latest technologies and sciences to leverage battlefield advantages,” Capt. Travis Fulmore, Memphis Army Recruiting Company Commander, said. “Our Soldiers learn these STEM skills and become competitive candidates for the workforce while they serve, or upon completion service.”

    The AS9 features ‘SARAH: The Future of Rescue Mission’, (Seach and Rescue Autonomous Hardware) a real-life, scenario-based experience demonstrating how autonomous systems are transforming the way the Army operates.

    “Students who board and participate are encouraged to use critical thinking and leading-edge technology to solve SARAH’s complex rescue mission, ” Fulmore said.
