190720-N-IY633-2103 GREAT LAKES, Ill., (July 20, 2019) Capt. Anthony Corapi, officer in charge of the Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps (Naval ROTC) New Student Indoctrination program, left, inspects Naval ROTC midshipmen candidates during their summer dress white uniform inspection at Recruit Training Command (RTC) as part of Naval ROTC New Student Indoctrination. The young men and women from across the country are entering their freshman year of the Naval ROTC program at universities nationwide this fall. They 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. They are led by Navy-option 1st class and Marine-option 2nd class midshipmen, instructors and staff from Naval ROTC units across the country. The staff is overseeing and instructing the midshipmen candidates with assistance from the Recruit Division Commanders and instructors assigned to RTC as well as active duty Marine Corps Drill Instructors. New Student Indoctrination provides basic training in five warfighting fundamentals – Fire Fighting, Damage Control, Seamanship, Watchstanding and Small Arms Handling and Marksmanship – to begin creating basically trained, smartly disciplined, tough and courageous future Navy and Marine Corps Officers.
