  I was nervous because I didn't know what we were going  to be doing on this trip. On Thrusday we arrived at Camp Perry in Perrysburg,Oiho. Then we went to out  sleeping areas and unpacked. The next day we woke up bright and early and fell into formation as always. During the weekend we did various activities such as land and night navigation. We also learned about firearms and how each one is properly loaded and  we did different scenario's on when the usage of deadly force is necessary.  One of the other activities consisted of groups of four or five then we practiced "strong wall" this is when you are persuing a room and you and your squad are very close to one another and the wall so if the enemy approches your ready. Our last activity was the Ruck march we had our rucks on our backs and we had to complete 50 push ups, 25 sit ups, walking over hurdlers, and a balance beam five times in a two hour time period.
