A group of cadets with the Wisconsin Challenge Academy prepare to enter a building at the academy complex Feb. 2, 2018, at Fort McCoy, Wis. A new class of cadets started training in January. The Challenge Academy, a Fort McCoy tenant organization, offers youth the opportunity to change the direction of their lives and develop the strength of character and life skills necessary to become successful, responsible citizens. The program begins with a 5 1/2-month residential phase, followed by a one-year, post-residential phase. (U.S. Army Photo by Scott T. Sturkol, Public Affairs Office, Fort McCoy, Wis.)
