With the overwhelming success and increased interest of the LTAC Pennsylvania Light Fighter Challenge, we thought we’d help out a little bit by running a “training day” in preparation.  The Light Fighter Challenge really is an individual gut check.  Where are you at in your personal growth and training?  This day is intended to answer your questions and help point you in the right direction.

You can arrive Friday, camp out, and have an opportunity to socialize.

Saturday morning will start with a 4-mile ruck.  The course will be set up so you can do 4, 6, or 8 miles.  There will also be stations set up for you to practice — land navigation, fire-starting, ax-throwing, first-aid, and stalking (just to name a few).  These stations are set up for you to practice and prepare.  You can spend as much time as you need.  We will also be there to give you advice and pointers to help you master these skills.  This will include clinics on how to pack a ruck, how to wear your socks and boots, and general care of your feet.  

You should bring your rifle to carry during your ruck, but there will be no live-fire practice on this day.
