[QUOTE="Keia, post: 1138616, member: 98"] [b]Training - day one[/b] [i]Back Porch, Secure Accommodations, Nellis Air Force Base Las Vegas, Nevada 0945 hours, June 1, 2003[/i] After stowing away what supplies were available and changing into base fatigues, those looking to develop some firearms skill, or just looking to brush up on skills they already had, gathered on the back porch of the accommodations to await the arrival of their trainers. There wait was short-lived as moments later, two air force drill sergeants and a corporal made their way past the perimeter patrols and across the yard. Along with a contingent of military personnel (who seemed primarily interested in protecting the group from all outside influences), the team made their way to the famed Nellis AFB training yards. The first hour was simple but intense training on the care and cleaning of the weapons being used – along with several rounds of practice. Then marksmanship and accuracy where tested for the next hour and those that were unfamiliar with the recoil of the weapon immediately became familiar with the experience. A brief lunch was handed out (barely a snack), then the sergeants lead the team on a ten mile run/march and obstacle course – pushing and prodding the entire way. The trainers weren’t concerned about delivering a fair bit of punishment for those that lagged behind (both physical and emotional). Then the marksmanship and accuracy was again tested, with explanations and instructions on how to compensate for fatigue and other conditions. Another snack was served and the instructors tested the team on the maintenance of the firearms (with sit-ups or push-ups for those that made mistakes). As twilight and evening set in, the trainers worked on lighting conditions, the flash the weapon provided, and the use of various scopes and sight assistance devices. Durant, and those who did not attend the training were given the opportunity to watch the final event of the evening. Finally, at almost 9:00pm, the obstacle course test (with targets) was run though, with scoring for each member of the team that participated – congratulating those that did well and instructing those who needed more work and direction (though much friendlier than earlier in the day). Fully exhausted, though with a strong sense of accomplishment, those that went through the training found both the showers (baths) and bunks to be a welcome sight that evening.
