IET AND BCT

Initial Entry Training

The goal of Initial Entry Training (IET) is to learn the history of the Organization and why its members take pride in its heraldry. You will learn about what makes up the bulk of our force and what it means to be part of the corps. You will learn about the Chain of Command and where your hard work helps drive the success of the organization.

By the end of IET you will:

  • Understand our Corps Values and Warrior Ethos
  • Uphold our customs, traditions, and fundamental skills and responsibilities
  • Be able to operate effectively and flourish under high stress conditions
  • Possess self-discipline, be adaptable and flexible to overcome any challenge

Basic Combat Training

The goal of Basic Combat Training (BCT) is to build both confidence and discipline in the individual, so they can begin to understand the effective combat prowess each person possesses when they focus on the task. Learning various weapons platforms and survival skills, each person will be challenged to overcome conditions they will experience on the battlefield. From basic movements to standard Battle Drills, the various skills and techniques learned will instill the confidence and capability to take on any hostile force that presents itself to challenge you.

By the end of BCT you will:

  • Complete obstacle and confidence courses
  • Qualify with individual weapons
  • Be proficient in unit tactics and skills
  • Be proficient in battle drills and tasks

Why do we Train?

Going into future conflicts, such as those starting to rise in 'the Verse', the 10th is poised to be one of the most effective and feared organizations due to our focus on cohesion. In order to hold onto that prestige and confidence of those who contract us, we must stand in constant vigil and keep our edge sharp.

  • We train to hone our skills
  • We train to keep our competitive edge sharp
  • We train to forge the next generation of warriors
