ND National Guard's video: Bring a Buddy to Drill - ND Army National Guard

Over 128 recruits of the ND Army National Guards Recruit Training Company participated in the annual consolidated drill this past weekend at Camp Grafton near Devils Lake, N.D. The ND Army National Guard maintains three recruit training companies, located in Bismarck, Fargo and Devils Lake. The purpose of recruit training companies, or RTC, is to give recruits who haven't left for basic combat training a chance to train on the skills they will learn while at "boot camp." By giving the recruits the opportunity to train in a realistic environment, it eliminates some of the initial shock of "boot camp," helping them to better focus on the mission at hand - becoming Soldiers.
