Military School Training

Airborne School: Become a Paratrooper at the Army Airborne School at Fort Benning, GA. Earn the very unique and rewarding qualification after challenging yourself both mentally and physically! Attend the three-week course to become basic airborne qualified.

Air Assault School: Become an Air Assault Qualified soldier after learning insertion, evacuation, and pathfinder missions that call for use of multipurpose transportation and assault helicopters. Attend the rigorous 10-day course, and graduate after rappelling out of a UH-60 Blackhawk Helicopter!

Combat Diver Qualification Course: The grueling seven-week Combat Diver Qualification Course, or CDQC, at the Special Forces Underwater Operations School in Key West, Fla., is neither for the weak of heart, or the idle of mind. It is as intense mentally as it is physically, with an attrition rate that truly begins before each class cycle does.
