Airborne

Airborne School: https://www.infantry.army.mil/airborne/airborne/

This school located at Ft. Benning, Georgia. Cadets start their first week on the ground, learning the basics of parachute landings, and start a vigorous training program. During the second week, called tower week, proper exiting of the plane is mastered, and cadets are given the opportunity to parachute from a 250 ft tower. The third and final week is the jump week. Cadets make five jumps from either a C-130 or C-141, including one night jump and two combat jumps with full combat gear. Are you brave enough to be AIRBORNE!

AIR ASSAULT!

cadet troop leading training

Cadet Troop Leader Training

Cadets also may find themselves anywhere in the country, or overseas, involved in the Cadet Troop Leadership Training Program. This program takes cadets and places them in actual Army units, acting as real Lieutenants! This two or three week challenge is a definite learning experience, and allows cadets to get a perspective on what they will be facing as future officers. The United States is counting on you to take care of over 30 soldiers, and sometimes millions of dollars worth of equipment...can you handle the responsibility?
