Basic Training
Week 5 - Trails
More than halfway there . . .
This week you will be on bivouac, living in tents and performing soldiering skills in the field. You learn basic first aid, camouflage, taking cover, setting up defensive positions and continuing to work with your M-16, including a night fire exercise. Even in the field, you can't completely escape PT, bayonet drills and hand-to-hand combat training.
Inspection of your living area and weapon this week is tough and exacting, but by this time so are you.
