The annual #BOSS24 Training Forum is cooking up a storm this week at the National Conference Center in Leesburg, Virginia. On June 9, the Soldiers participated in a life skills exercise of healthy eating and a skills assessment. Deb Harris, Defense Commissary Agency dietitian, was on hand to provide nutrition guidance for the Soldiers. They were split into 12 teams of 6, and each had to concoct meals using typical cooking utensils such as knives, bowls, measuring cups, an InstaPot and Microwave. The meals had to be nutritious -- high in protein, low sodium and using healthy fats such as olive oil and avocados -- and within a $40 budget. A four-person team judged the team’s dishes based on the above criteria and also on presentation – much like a cooking show. IMCOM-PacificCommand Sgt. Maj. Jon Williams, who participated on one of the teams, lauded the Soldiers’ creativity and resourcefulness. “The best part was seeing the social interaction, teamwork, critical thinking, and leadership applied to making their meal. They had so much fun, and that’s what we expect in our life skills program.” The forum lasts until June 14. We Are The #ArmysHome #PeopleFirst #BOSSProgram #CheersTo35Years
