Cadets simulate a mortar attack on a combat outpost. During the combat outpost exercise, companies of cadets were tasked with securing their area of operation from insurgent attacks while maintaining good relations with the local villagers. Missions ranged from negotiations with the village sheik, quick reaction team responses to attacks, medical evacuations and route clearing operations. The three-week Cadet Leadership Development Training for rising cows and firsties at West Point, N.Y., included marksmanship training, platoon attack engagements and urban operations to uncover high value targets (insurgent leaders) as the objective.
