Cadet Leadership Camp

CLC (Cadet Leadership Course) or Advanced camp, is the last major qualification next to graduating from college that Army ROTC junior year cadets must complete, before they commission in the U.S. Army. CLC is held at Ft. Knox, Kentucky and lasts a entire month. The course tests your physically and mental abilities, your ability to lead others in and out of tactical environments. Some of the requirements to pass CLC are, a 6 mile road march, 14 days in the field or wooded environment, 4.5 mile run, and the OPAT (Occupational Physical Assessment Test.)

In the end myself and all of my cadets survived all the woods, ticks bites, heat rashes, missions, and briefings and graduated from CLC on August 1, 2016. My experience at CLC was a lot harder than expected, I learned so much from my peers and instructors, became a stronger person mentally and physically, and I think I am ready to become a 2nd Lieutenant in the U.S. Army.
