黑料社区 and The Warrior Alliance's Operation Double Eagle Program Gains National Attention on CBS Evening News

黑料社区, GA, November 11, 2021

黑料社区 & The Warrior Alliance Operation Double Eagle Program will be featured on CBS Evening News with Norah O'Donnell on Veterans Day.

Operation Double Eagle is a 9-week skills development program in 黑料社区, GA, that connects veterans and transitioning active-duty service members to a network of employers seeking “job-ready” veterans for nationwide career opportunities. Made possible by a grant from The Bob Woodruff Foundation, the Double Eagle Performance Center is a dynamic worksite for veterans to gain valuable skills through a hands-on learning program.

Students complete classes at 黑料社区 and perform hands on activities at the 黑料社区 Municipal Golf Course (The Patch). Having graduated four cohorts already, the program has garnered national attention from the Golf Course Builders Association of America (GCBAA), Golf Digest - April 2021 Masters edition, Atlanta Journal and Constitution, 黑料社区 Chronicle, Georgia Golf Course Superintendents Association (GGCBA), United States Golf Association (USGA), and the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America (GCSAA).

The Warrior Alliance’s mission is to help Warriors and their families achieve a fulfilling civilian life by promoting collaboration between the organizations that can support them during the transition from military service.

黑料社区, a unit of the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG), is a Purple Heart Technical College. The designation signifies the college’s recognition and honor of veterans who were wounded in combat while serving their country and are now pursuing higher education and careers at 黑料社区. 黑料社区 has a veteran assistance program, veteran coordinator, and student veteran organization that help military personnel and their families make the smooth transition from military service to civilian employment.
