==U.S. Navy Boot Camp==
U.S. Navy Boot Camp takes place over eight weeks at Recruit Training Command (RTC) in Great Lakes, Illinois. Training begins with orientation classes along with conditioning, swimming, marching, and drilling. This is followed by a confidence course designed to simulate shipboard situations encountered in emergencies, where teamwork is essential. The next stage takes place on a land-bound training ship where seamanship and hands-on interaction with live equipment is stressed. This is followed by weapons training, naval career counseling, and shipboard damage control & firefighting training. Recruits then have to pass a final series of Battle Station tests before graduating.
