The biannual FTX was held at the Wendell H. Ford Regional Training Center in Greenville, Kentucky. The exercise serves as hands-on training and provides bonding for all cadet classes. Cadets tackled a high ropes course, maneuvered through an obstacle course, practiced day and night Land Navigation, and slept under the stars. MS1 CDT McWilliams called it an eye-opening experience into the US Army because, “it showed me a different perspective from what can be taught on campus.”
