Twin brothers find individuality, success in Army Recruiting

FORT KNOX, Ky. — Although twin brothers Jacob and Jacoi Frett grew up doing everything together, the two have found individual success in their most recent Army jobs, recruiting young men and women into the Army. In their hometown of St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, their only exposure to the military as children was their father, who enlisted in the Army in 1958 and retired before they were born. Now they both serve as staff sergeants in the Army, assigned under the same brigade within U.S. Army Recruiting Command but placed in different cities.
