Field Training Exercises (FTX)

At least once a year, Cadets of different levels would be offered a chance to go on a field training exercise (FTX). Other than having fun doing activities, these FTXs would allow cadets to learn and practice basic skills when stranded in the wilderness. Such skills include, first aid, building shelters based on situation, strategies to get rescued, and much more.

Here are some pictures from the February FTX of 2018:
