CCOPAB holds the Basic Combat Training Camp
Rio de Janeiro (RJ) - From 18 to 20 April 2022, the Brazilian Peace Operations Joint Training Center (CCOPAB) carried out the Basic Combat Training Camp for the privates, along with other educational organizations, under the coordination of the Logistics School for NCOs (EsLog).
The exercise took place at the facilities of the 8th Airborne Campaign Artillery Group (GAC Pqdt), where privates of the "House of Peacekeepers" were able to practice the knowledge acquired during the Basic Combat Training (BCT). The workshops were on messenger’s track, daytime and nighttime navigation, daytime and nightime progression, knots and ties, bayonet combat, points/reflex shooting, hygiene, prophylaxis and first aid, and sentry termination.
As of the end of the BCT camp, the new privates of CCOPAB will be able to wear the green beret, symbol of the soldier who overcomes challenges with courage and determination; they will receive their berets during a ceremony with the families, at the Center. Privates who stand out during the BCT Camp are awarded a token by CCOPAB Commander.
