#SAACares: SAA Alum ’05 Andrew Simms helped victims of Hurricane Harvey evacuate from their homes to safety. He is an Executive Officer in the National Guard. Mr. Simms and his team of 80 soldiers saved 130 people, 25 dogs, 3 cats, and 5 horses! They saved some of these animals and humans by using Zodiac Boats. Mr. Simms explained, “The Academy teaches a lot of the ideals and character traits that the army seeks in its leaders and soldiers." The values taught here at SAA prepared Lieutenant Simms to lead in the National Guard!
