Drill Platoon
"If It Were Easy, Anyone Would Do It!"
Team Captain: TBD
IntroductionDrill is a team in which the cadet is expected to be, or become by taking part in this team, physically fit (including curl-ups, push-ups, & for those who run the relays they need to be fast at running short distance), academically smart (be knowledgeable of DOD Chain of Command & NS1-3 & Cadet Field Manual for the ones who are competing in the academic exam), and be able to drill. In drill, you will do movements such as Columns, Flanks, Phases, Salutes, & other marching and stationary drill. Through drill, the cadet will learn good leadership skills, discipline, along with several other life-long skills. Drill consists of Armed Basic, Unarmed Basic, Armed Exhibition, Unarmed Exhibition, Athletics, and also an academic test. Unarmed drill is done without the drill rifles and Armed drill is done with the rifles. Basic is just marching and stationary movements and Exhibition is similar to a dance routine but instead of dancing the cadets are using sharp movements combined with drill movements.Practice Schedule:
