University students from the Army, Navy and Air Force joined together this past Saturday for their annual Tri-Service Competition. This year, the Air Force took home the trophy. The competition began in the morning with the RJ Hess 5k where each service sent six members — two women and four men. The 5k was a memorial to honor aviation officer and First Lieutenant Robert Joseph “R.J.” Hess, who received his commission from the Army ROTC program at the University and died in Afghanistan in 2013.
