Military training

Military training is instruction and repeated practice that prepare armed forces personnel to perform operational duties, individually and as coordinated units.

Military exercise: A planned activity in which military forces practice tasks, procedures, or operations. Exercises combine skills under simulated operational conditions and expose coordination problems.
Military education: Formal study that develops military knowledge, judgment, and professional understanding. Education supplies the concepts and decision-making knowledge that practical training applies.
Basic training: Initial instruction that introduces recruits to military standards, routines, and foundational skills. It is the common entry stage before personnel move into specialized duties.
Military readiness: The ability of military forces to deploy and perform assigned missions when required. Training contributes to readiness but is only one part of a force's operational capability.
Live-fire exercise: A military exercise in which personnel use live ammunition or explosives. It tests weapon handling and unit coordination under the hazards of real ordnance.
Military fitness: The physical capacity required to perform military duties and withstand their demands. Physical conditioning supports the endurance and strength many operational tasks require.
Officer candidate school: A military program that trains candidates for commissioned officer service. It develops leadership and command skills for a distinct personnel role.
Military doctrine: The principles that guide how armed forces prepare for and conduct operations. Doctrine specifies intended approaches; training develops the ability to carry them out.
After-action review: A structured review of an activity that identifies what happened, why, and what should change. Reviewing performance turns exercise outcomes into lessons for later training.
Marksmanship: The skill of aiming and firing a weapon accurately and safely. Weapons proficiency is a specific skill developed through instruction and repeated practice.
