Labels:text | screenshot | font | document OCR: The stamina required for such grueling training was taking its toll, and the numbers in our class continued to dwindle. We started out with a class of 130, and at this phase of training we were down to 75. The last and final phase, Land Warfare, was spent half in Coronado and half on San Clemente Island. We learned everything from land navigation and demolition tactics to small firearms. We also had to increase our speed and endurance because the qualifying times for running and swimming were getting shorter and shorter. Even though our bodies were falling apart from the grueling training, we managed to keep up and pass the tests. I'll never forget the feeling coming back from San Clemente Island, knowing I only had one more week of training left, walking tall and proud!
