What is Hell Day?
Hell Day places registrants into a team, and are provided with rubber training rifles, large training logs, combat life-saving gear, litters, and more, all while immersed in a realistic training environment similar to Navy SEAL BUD/S Hell Week, USAF A&S, Army Ranger/Special Forces Assessment & Selection, etc.
Students are exposed to strenuous environmental elements such as: cold water submersion, stress induced from instructor cadre, challenging team ruck marches & runs, etc. Weaknesses & strengths are exposed in each student throughout the event, providing real-time proof/analysis of whether the student possesses the necessary traits to become a Special Operator. Traits we analyze:
-
resiliency/will-power
-
leadership ability
-
task-performing accuracy & precision under stress
-
communication under stress
-
confidence accomplishing tasks under the water
-
cognitive learning
-
memory retention
Students learn that only together, as one unit, will they finish the course. Whether communicating clearly to accomplish tasks or keeping warm after cold water submersion, the day/night is full of challenges that cannot be accomplished alone!
