Book excerpt: The Cape May Preparation Guide! Congratulations for making the decision to join the greatest military the world has ever known. Of these five branches of the U.S. military, the USCG has been ranked as the most intellectually demanding and second only to the U.S. Marines in physicality. This is why you will need a preparation guide and every advantage that you can acquire before entering the gates of Cape May NJ. I have written this book specifically to help prepare you for the most challenging aspects of basic training as a potential future recruit, along with helpful hints from myself and fellow Coasties. As a USCG Veteran, I will help to mentor you and pass down the knowledge that my shipmates and I never received prior to our training. No matter what has led you to join the CG, you should take basic training seriously. In my basic training experience, I watched helplessly as so many of my shipmates tapped out due to stress or were reverted due to the inability to endure the rigorous demands of our Company Commanders. The last thing that you want to do at Cape May is spend more time there as a recruit! Use the accumulated knowledge of this book in preparation to shipping off for basic training and your chances for success will be greatly improved. Yes "it's only 8 weeks," but how will your 8 weeks at TRACEN Cape May be remembered and how will your Coast Guard career commence? Here Is A Preview Of What You'll Learn... history of the uscg the company commander week by week guide fitness assessment and prep plan phonetic alphabet, military time, international flags rates and ranks chain of command marksmanship and nomenclature marching and manual of arms nautical knots Much, much, more!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every American fighting man and woman share one thing in common: they have all survived basic military training. Basic tells the story of that training. Medal of Honor recipient Col. Jack Jacobs and David Fisher recount the funny, sad, dramatic, poignant, and sometimes crazy history of how America has trained its military, told through the personal accounts of those who remember the experiences as if they happened yesterday. If you've been through basic or boot camp, these memories of drill instructors, marching chants, combat training (and the "gas chamber"), hospital corners, and the shared feeling of triumph are guaranteed to make you smile. And those who haven't done it will understand and appreciate this life-changing experience that turns a civilian into a soldier—and in just eight weeks.

Leahy chronicles the transition of eighty-one men and women from civilians to sailors at the U.S. Navy Recruit Training Command in Great Lakes, Illinois. Granted unlimited and unprecedented access to the recruits during the fall of 2000, his examination of the unique American institution -—popularly known as boot camp -—offers a look into the hearts and minds of a group of young people who are a cross section of the nation. The work offers a unique view into the training experience of all recruits and sheds light on the differences between those entering the military services and the society they serve.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US Coast Guard Training Center at Cape May tells the story of the Center from Navy Section Base 9 to the only recruit training center in the US. Commissioned as Navy Section Base 9 in 1917, the US Coast Guard Training Center at Cape May stands on the site of a former amusement park that bordered the Atlantic Ocean a few miles east of Cape May in southern New Jersey. Dirigibles, submarines, and minesweepers were based here during World War I. Because of its proximity to the ocean and Delaware Bay, the base was used by Coast Guard patrol boats and cutters to chase rumrunners during Prohibition in the 1920s. An airfield was established adjacent to the base in 1926, and in 1940, both combined to become Naval Air Station Cape May. The station protected the coast line from German U-boats during World War II. The Coast Guard took over the facility in 1946, and in 1948, the base became the only recruit training center in the country, today graduating more than 4,000 recruits per year.
