190709-N-IY633-2070 GREAT LAKES, Ill. (July 9, 2019) Naval ROTC midshipmen candidates recite their names while experiencing the effects of CS gas (tear gas) during chemical, biological, radiological (CBR) protective equipment familiarization training in the confidence chamber at the USS Chief Firefighting and Damage Control Trainer at Recruit Training Command (RTC). The young men and women from across the country, who are entering their freshman year of the Naval ROTC program, are undergoing a three-week indoctrination program hosted at RTC, the U. S. Navy's only boot camp, which provides standardized entry-level militarization and prepares midshipmen with a common training orientation.
