The Lafayette Army Recruiting Company says they are open for business.

Online and telephone recruitment operations have replaced the traditional in-person meetings at recruitment stations across Acadiana due to COVID-19 and the current stay-at-home order.

Lafayette Army Recruiting Company commander, Capt. Paxton Haydel says that recruiters will be virtually available to help those interested in finding a career with the Army.
