The Crucible

The crucible that is the JRTC experience is an arduous ordeal every unit must go through to certify their readiness. It tests every leader and the unit collectively physically, mentally, and morally and is the defining experience of collective training. The crucible takes place over fourteen days of force-on-force as part of a decisive action training exercise, where leaders and units are continuously food & sleep deprived, harassed by opposition forces, and generally under duress.

The bottom line is this—the crucible at the JRTC is a rite of passage that, through shared sacrifice, leaders and units will never forget. With that memory and the core warfighting skills honed throughout this training exercise, they will be able to face any challenges in their path allowing them to fight and win on the modern battlefield.
