Scott AFB Hosts Immersive Deployment Experience For Kids

BELLEVILLE - This past weekend, children of #TeamScott members took part in the Military & Family Readiness Center's (M&FRC) "Kids Understanding Deployment Operations" (K.U.D.O.S) event, an initiative designed to give them a firsthand experience of a service member's deployment.

The event, held at Scott Air Force Base in Belleville, began with briefings for the young participants, who then proceeded through their own Pre-Deployment Function Line and received gear.

The day’s activities included an obstacle course, a shooting range, innovation demonstrations, and a combat fighting 101 session.
