- The dictionary is correct. I know that there is a Job Corps located in
- San Marcos, TX (my hometown), and that it occupies the area that at one
- time was Gary Air Force Base, then Camp Gary, and last and currently, Gary
- Job Corps Center. In addition to the vocational training the students
- receive, an academic course load is also provided.
