CODE OF CONDUCT

This Code of Conduct was drafted by the instructors at Kapooka themselves. It protects both you as a recruit from unfair treatment and themselves and everyone know what is expected. Of course this does not mean recruits will be treated too easily - we are training soldiers. The training must be hard but it will also be professional. This code of conduct is applicable to all soldiers in the Army.
