Army Reserve Staff Sgt. Steve Engle, a broadcast journalist with the 367th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment, 318th Press Camp Headquarters, interviews 15-year-old Jalen Williams (right), one of the children in the Children's Health Department of the University Hospital in San Antonio Jan. 3, as Jaelan Phillips (left) a high-school student and defensive end for the west team of the U.S. Army All-American Bowl looks on. More than 30 high-school athletes participating in the upcoming Army All-American Bowl and their Soldier mentors took the opportunity to visit with kids at the hospital as part of a community relations event. For 16 years the Army All-American Bowl has been the nation's premier high school football game, serving as the preeminent launching pad for America's future college and National Football League stars.
