Mentoring

Mentoring is a relationship in which knowledge and skills are shared between members in a way in which everyone benefits. Often a more senior person is mentoring a junior person, but mentorship can happen between any two individuals. Mentoring will help Airmen and Guardians discover their strengths by achieving their full potential through a structured, trusting mentoring relationship.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Savannah District, recovered 19 Revolutionary War era cannon, some cannon fragments, and other artifacts through the deepening of the Savannah Harbor as part of the Savannah Harbor Expansion Project. Most of the artifacts are now at Texas A&M’s Conservation Research Laboratory where they will undergo conservation treatments to prepare them for their final exhibit at the Savannah History Museum. The restoration process at Texas A&M could take up to 3-5 years, depending on the extent of treatments each cannon and other artifacts require. Currently, there are a few cannon and artifacts on display at the Savannah History Museum in the same condition they were when pulled from the river. Video created by: Michael L.
