What happens when you get recycled in army boot camp in your last week?

Answer 1

It is the defining moment of Boot Camp termed "The Crucible Event" which is a non stop 54 hour final exam of the lessons learned at boot camp. It involves a 40 mile trek through the woods and numerous test events that challenge their ideals and their commitment with little or no sleep, rest or food. Only successful completion gives them acceptance as US Marines.

Answer 2

Army = Basic Combat Training, Marine Corps = Boot Camp

Your last week, you'll take your final APFT, you'll receive your orders for AIT (unless you're in One Station Unit Training), and you'll basically do your final series of tests. You'll do maintenance on your weapon and equipment for turn in, and you'll spend a fair amount of time preparing yourself for your graduation ceremony.

Answer 3

They can recycle you almost any length of time. Typically it's a week or two.
