Desert
training is conducted near Mosses Lake, WA.
Moses Lake, Washington, United States
It is
designed to teach students how to survive in the extreme heat of the desert
while maintaining the student's survival needs. Typical groups range in size
from 5 - 12 students per instructor element. Students learn in how to build
and use shelters, fires, ground to air signals, improvised tools/equipment,
food procurement, sustenance preparation, cooking techniques, land
navigation, and desert travel to meet their survival needs. Students also
learn to call in recovery assets to their location for recovery. These
skills are similar to the ones they learned in the previous phases but are
practiced so they apply to the desert region. All these skills are learned
and graded regardless of the present weather conditions because the students
are taught and expected to cope with extreme climatic conditions throughout
training.
