Yeah that's the Navy.  Why do you think that Rune75 likes working in the shipyard?

I think they do something similar to the Army, but theirs involves more Drill and Ceremony, an M9 qual (and I think only a fam-fire with an M16), and probably less infantry-like patrolling.  It's called "Field Training" (as opposed to the Army's "Advanced Camp").  I believe it's between their sophomore and junior years.  I think their cadre is ungodly strict (like DS/DI kind of thing), since it's the only time they'll be anything like it.  I know for their sophomore-year prep the cadre is like that.  It's probably also the only time they do PT, b/c I know AFROTC did PT for the train-up, but not really other than that.

Hopefully, my information is fairly accurate.  I know it's a bit colored, since I'm in the Army and I can't help but make fun of the AF, but it should be mostly good.


ETA: From www.afrotc.com/collegelife/courses/fieldTraining.php

During the summer after your sophomore year, you will participate in field training. This rigorous program involves physical conditioning, weapons training and survival training. But more than that, Field Training is your opportunity to develop your skills as both a leader and team member.

Field Training is required for all cadets who seek membership in the Professional Officer Course (POC).

There are two different field training units:

   * Four-Week Field Training Unit: This standard Field Training unit is designed for cadets in the four-year Air Force ROTC program. (The two-year program and the last two years of the four-year program are identical except for entry procedures. )
   * Six-Week Field Training Unit: This extended Field Training unit is designed for applicants to the two-year Air Force ROTC program. The six-week Field-Training unit requires an additional 60 hours of academics, which are equal to the 60 hours of on-campus academics taken by four-year cadets during their freshman and sophomore years.

Here are a few of the many activities you’ll experience during Field Training:

   * Physical conditioning
   * Marksmanship training
   * Survival Training
   * Air Force Specialty Orientation
   * Confidence course
   * Aircraft and crew orientation
   * Human relations
   * Drill and ceremonies
   * Leadership study

That's not the Navy, it's the Army.
No disgusting fat-bodies.
