It depends if he goes up the big hill, or the other big hill.

It is a difficult range because of the terrain and weather.

0331's have to run then walk then climb their way up a hill to a firing postion in support of the advancing company.

It is not fun.

All ranges at 29 Palms are a bit challenging due to the heat and desert terrain. You son's NCOs will ensure he is both physically fit and well hydrated to tackle these challenges. He is in good hands:marine:

He will most likely be doing fire and manuever drills as a fireteam and learning his MOS with a more tactical approach rather than the classroom environment at SOI.
