A unique weeklong youth camp presented by Pennsylvania State Police, the American Legion, and Pennsylvania National Guard has attracted dozens of students interested in a career in law enforcement and/or the military.
For six days, the teens will live in the dorms at York College, marching to and from classes in platoon formation, according to WHTM-TV.
