SUI is a multi-day class that will start Friday evening and run through Monday afternoon. The entire time will be spent at the training facility. We will training all hours of the clock. You will be expected to bring a cot, sleeping bag, and field rations for each day. We will be grilling for dinner and breakfast, but lunch and anything else is on you. Since we will be on the range/in the field during dark, you are welcome to bring night vision, but it is not required. We will cover a number of subjects, including the standard Pistol and Carbine shooting. We will cover some patrolling basics, setting up OP/LP, reacting to contact, setting ambushes, medical blocks, communications, convoy operations as well as a few other shorter subjects.
