Former Sul Ross student recalls Nevada atomic maneuver
A former Sul Ross State College student, Pvt. Lynn Mae, participated in Exercise Desert Rock V at Camp Desert Rock. He occupied a forward foxhole during the A bomb blast and then advanced with troops against an imaginary enemy. The Desert Rock program, part of Army training, followed last spring’s battalion exercises and involved personnel from across the Army. The soldier later earned a Bachelor of Music degree from Sul Ross State College in 1981 and worked as a teacher and band director in Del Rio public schools.
