If you are interested in ROTC, an MSI, MSII, or MSIII, this video is FOR YOU!

ROTC cadets must attend field training exercises (FTXs) each semester in preparation for Cadet Summer Training (CST), usually the MSIII year. However, when Landen was a freshman (MSI), he didn't know what would happen during an FTX and how to best prepare himself for it. Through difficult but memorable experiences, he learned the ins and outs of FTXs. This video aims to transfer his knowledge of FTX to you in a complete FTX breakdown of his junior fall semester in 2023.
