GREAT LAKES, Ill. (July 2, 2019) – Capt. Anthony Corapi, commanding officer of the University of Illinois Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps (NROTC) unit and commanding officer of the NROTC New Student Indoctrination, addresses midshipmen candidates, instructors, and attending family and friends in Midway Ceremonial Drill Hall at Recruit Training Command (RTC) during the midshipmen candidates’ Ceremonial Oath as part of New Student Indoctrination. The young men and women from across the country, who are entering their freshman year of the NROTC program, will undergo the three-week indoctrination program hosted at RTC, which provides standardized entry-level militarization and prepares midshipmen with a common training orientation. They are led by Navy-option 1st class and, Marine-option 2nd class midshipmen, instructors and staff from NROTC units across the country. The staff is overseeing and instructing the midshipmen candidates with assistance from the Recruit Division Commanders and instructors assigned to RTC as well as Marine Corps Drill Instructors. New Student Indoctrination provides basic training in five warfighting fundamentals – Fire Fighting, Damage Control, Seamanship, Watchstanding and Small Arms Handling and Marksmanship - to begin creating basically trained, smartly disciplined, tough and courageous future Navy and Marine Corps Officers.
