Does the other branches of the military have a "final test" before the end of their training?

Hello,\n\nThe Crucible for me was a few years ago I went on it in 1997, the most thing that I remember was that it really tested your endurance and knowledge of Marine Corps basic Infantry moves, every Marine being a Rifleman you have to know how to take care of your squad, being only 5'6 the long hikes and carrying that pack were pretty tough, but it really brings you and your team and platoon together as one, and being called a Marine for the first time, climbing up the Reaper listening to Proud to be an American, it was very emotional, going through 13 weeks of intense training and knowing that it meant something, will be something I will never forget. \n\nSemper FI

Yes.  There is a hierarchy in place where some peers out rank others.  You are usually taught by retired military officers.  You get many after school programs such as Rifle teams or Raiders.  You are taught things like map reading, plotting coordinates, public speeking and becoming tomorrow's leader (and cannot forget the unique fitness programs)

Its something like Army, Navy and Airforce in general.

Yes, for both the Army and Officer training programs like ROTC, OCS, and the Point. The regulations do differ slightly, but they are all pretty much the same.

NO-they do not test for steroids in firfighters nor cops or army or anything of that matter...steroids are rarley tested because the tests cost to much.\n\nsteroid tests are among some of the most expensive teste available

You have to take a test run by the state.

Well, probably too late now for the test.\n\nTry reading the Constitution. It's only a dozen or so pages. The main Articles that deal with checks and balances are the first three that establish the main branches of government, and Article VI.

Those that have already done it ALWAYS remember it being harder than it was.  *L*  "Back in MY day..."\n\nOf course, there are a LOT of things that have been dropped from the BT because of injuries, or have been deemed "unsafe" (damn OSHA), and some things have been added to meet the new combat situation.\n\nEasier?  No, just different.  The physical part is still there, the Drills are still there, just the classes have changed.

once you have signed yourself over to them you have to wait until your enlistment is up. it doesn't matter what branch you choose.

They discard after they test.

Well first you go to Boot Camp (not basic training, big difference), then you go to MCT (Marine Combat Training) and then you go to A-school to learn about your job.  Finally you get stationed somewhere.  I don't know what you mean asking what do you do next.  You do your job and whatever else they tell you to do.

im sure there are plenty of countries using it.... possibly the british army ..... most military branches dont give out information on what types of training exercises they have that could possibly get into the wrong hands

We had two airmen who left during basic from my flight for being gay.  Typically, the Air Force has so little invested in you at that stage of your career that it makes no sense for them to do anything other than give you an administrative discharge and send you on your way.  You could also simply fail the physical requirements, or a number of other tests they give you.  "Failure to adapt to military life" is a valid reason for discharge as well.

I joined the Army in 1991, and the only physical exam I remember getting was at the MEPS.  In reception at Basic we got all our shots, but no exam. They may have changed since then.
