TCA Salemburg Class 55 traveled to Samarcand Training Academy

Tarheel ChalleNGe Academy Salemburg candidates, traveled to Samarcand Training Academy this week for a part of their acclimation phase training.  The Acclimation phase takes place during the first two weeks of the program and tends to be the toughest part of the program to many.  Mostly because of the new daily regimen filled with military-themed structure, discipline, demanding activities, and 5:30 am wake-ups.  While at Samarcand Training Academy, candidates participate in numerous exercises to test their physical fitness, boost their self-confidence, and demonstrate the benefits of teamwork.  Candidates are introduced to Military tactics such as Physical Fitness.  One highlight of the Samarcand Training Academy is participating in the Obstacle Course.  The Obstacle Course serves as a type of final exam for many of the team building activities because candidates must work together to successfully complete of the obstacles.
