FIELDCRAFT TRAINING

Throughout the 45 day recruit course fieldcraft is an essential skill taught to all soldiers. It involves learning how to work within a section and platoon scenario out in the bush. Recruits are taught lessons on such areas as:

  • Camouflage and concealment
  • Fire and movement
  • How to set up a section and platoon harbour
  • How to use all the military equipment issued to them.

The culmination of all fieldcraft is an exercise conducted in near by bushland, the recruits will test their stamina, determination and ability to work in a team by completing an Exercise Trained Soldier to put all the skills they have learnt into practice.
