PLATOON
SITUATION TRAINING EXERCISES
Platoon STX is a five-day, two-phase event that gives cadets practical
experience leading soldiers at the platoon level. The first two days,
the platoon training phase, focus on training platoon operations.
Cadets are not formally evaluated at this time, but do receive developmental
feedback. The last three days, the platoon STX lanes phase, are designed
to evaluate leadership potential using tactical scenarios. Each cadet
receives one formal evaluation of performance in a leadership position.
Platoon STX builds on and reinforces all previous instruction, and
teaches cadets the basics of air assault operations. This event culminates
cadets' training at Advanced Camp. |
