    GREAT LAKES, Ill. (July 9, 2019) – Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps (NROTC) midshipmen candidates experience the effects of CS Gas (tear gas) during Chemical, Biological, Radiological (CBR) protective equipment familiarization training in the confidence chamber at the USS Chief Firefighting and Damage Control Trainer at Recruit Training Command (RTC). The young men and women from across the country, who are entering their freshman year of the NROTC program, are undergoing a three-week indoctrination program hosted at RTC, the U. S. Navy’s only boot camp, which provides standardized entry-level militarization and prepares midshipmen with a common training orientation. They are led by Navy-option 1st class and Marine-option 2nd class midshipmen, instructors and staff from NROTC units across the country. The staff is overseeing and instructing the midshipmen candidates with assistance from the Recruit Division Commanders and instructors assigned to RTC as well as active duty Marine Corps Drill Instructors. New Student Indoctrination provides basic training in five warfighting fundamentals – Fire Fighting, Damage Control, Seamanship, Watchstanding and Small Arms Handling and Marksmanship – to begin creating basically trained, smartly disciplined, tough and courageous future Navy and Marine Corps Officers.
