Week 1

During the first week of Basic Training, you'll begin to get used to Army life. You'll also start getting into the best shape of your life, as your instructors put you through all kinds of exercises and get you running. Your new best friend, your M-16A2 rifle, will become a primary concern of yours during this week. You'll also learn about guard duty, how to prepare for inspections and start on your Basic Rifle Marksmanship Course.
