Show Social Sciences — History Social Sciences — History Field Training In the summer prior to entering the Professional Officer Course, all Four-Year Program AFROTC cadets and student applicants for the Two-Year Program must attend Field Training at an Air Force base. Four-Year Program students spend four weeks at their encampment, while Field Training for Two-Year Program applicants lasts six weeks. The primary difference in the two types of encampments is that the Two-Year Program applicants are given intensive academic work taken by those who were enrolled in the General Military Course (GMC). The Field Training program includes cadet orientation, survival training, junior officer training, aircraft and aircrew orientation, physical training, study of the organization and functions of an Air Force base, career orientation, small arms familiarization, first aid and other supplemental training. Women cadets undergo the same training. Uniforms, lodging, and meals are provided at no charge to the cadet or applicant and travel pay is authorized to and from the individual's home or school.
