Day 50: After PT (running), we headed to a range called wanat. It was probably one of my favorite things so far at BCT. The information we learned is some of the most important things we will learn here.
We were broken into squads and each squad had 4 humvees. Yes, we finally got to ride in a humvee. We went on a mission where we had to contact & kill the enemy when we approached a village. We practiced the proper way of team/squad maneuvering.
We also attended a class on IED and detecting them which was very informative. We took what we learned and went on a mission in the woods to see if we could detect any IEDs. The instructor would make the IEDs "go off" if we missed them. It really opened my eyes on the importance of really looking for IEDs or things out of the ordinary.
