The Recruitment Tree

The Recruitment Tree

The Recruitment Tree serves as a patriotic education site.

Though weathered by time, the Recruitment Tree remains lush and vigorous, standing tall and sturdy. Its trunk is encased in aerial roots, forming a triangular shape that requires ten people to encircle. The base of the tree has gnarled, rugged roots resembling a small hill. Its flat surfaces evoke a battleship plowing through waves and forging ahead, while its protruding parts resemble a command post standing firmly on the ground—an awe-inspiring sight.
