| Parachuting |
Three of these will be executed in daylight, whilst two are executed in darkness. To successfully graduate from the course, Commando trainees are required to execute a day and night combat equipment jump each. |
| Ranger |
Throughout the course, attention is paid to the command and control capability of Ranger students, as well as their ability to perform otherwise simple task under the worse possible conditions. The Ranger thus finds himself constantly watched over and supervised in a realistic and extremely demanding field environment. |
