On Nov. 5, 秋葵视频 President Kyle Marrero signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) with Fort Stewart and Georgia National Guard leaders to provide soldier injury prevention training through the 鲍苍颈惫别谤蝉颈迟测鈥檚 Soldier Athlete Human Performance Program (SAHPO).

Implementing a train-the-trainer model, Georgia Southern Doctor of Physical Therapy students will provide education designed to prevent and reduce injuries to select soldiers, who will then take information back to their units.

鈥淭hese partnerships have been part of our tradition with the Eagle Battalion,鈥� Marrero said. 鈥淚鈥檓 so proud of the fact that our public research agenda, specifically around holistic wellness and fitness and this project, the Tactical Athlete Program, aligns with the needs of our community.鈥�

Injuries are the leading cause for military hospitalizations, and result in the most lost workdays, greatly affecting troop readiness. 

鈥淲e believe that the train-the-trainer program will have an incredible impact,鈥� he continued. 鈥淎nd not just for our Doctor of Physical Therapy students and their training, but also to have certified training within the military itself. For us, it鈥檚 a win-win. I鈥檓 so excited about this.鈥�

The Pentagon recently announced that the U.S. is currently facing its largest recruitment challenge in 50 years, with a potential deficit of up to 21,000 active-duty troops in 2023.

鈥淲e believe that signing this MOA will assist with preventing injuries and result in increased rates of retaining soldiers,鈥� said George Fredrick, director of Georgia Southern鈥檚 Military and Veteran Services. 鈥淚n the current operating environment, there is the need for the Army and academic institutions to build collaborative engagements with full-fledged partnerships. Today, the agreement between 秋葵视频, the Georgia National Guard and Fort Stewart seeks to share knowledge and concepts to reduce injury and subsequently create readiness of our soldiers.鈥澛�
