Florida State Army Reserve Officer Training Corps cadets push themselves daily. Being a cadet means meeting at 6 a.m. for physical training, attending classes and training labs, and pushing themselves to new limits in hope of commissioning into the Army as a Second Lieutenant.
However, some cadets wanted to take on another challenge, and they did so by trying out for spots in Special School training, which they will attend over the summer.
According to the U.S. Army’s Cadet Command, cadets have the option to attend Special Training over the summer if they qualify. If selected by their school s commanding officers, they will have the chance to attend Air Assault School, Airborne School, Army Mountain Warfare School or Northern Warfare School. Army Cadet Command says spots are very competitive, and a few Florida State Cadets believe they have what it takes.
