Austin Ackerman and Nicholas Gumke, both James-town, and Christopher Kotzer, Kensal, N.D., were among those taking part in their initial in-processing with the North Dakota Army National Guard June 6 at the Armed Forces Reserve Center, Fargo.

They were three of many recruits training in Fargo as part of Operation Summer Surge, a three-day event preceding travel to basic training or ad-vanced individual training. The Army National Guard is the only service branch to offer the experience, which helps to prepare soldiers for what they will experience upon arriving at their training.
