Line 1: #REDIRECT [[Military recruit training]] '''Basic Training''' or bootcamp is a short intensive program for induction of recruits into an [[army]] or [[navy]]. In the [[United States]] a few military bases have special units devoted to basic training. The [[jargon]] of the service is introduced as well as the fundamentals of [[military discipline]] and the recruits are trained in the basic skills of their service. A great deal of emphasis is placed on proper wearing of the [[uniform]], [[grooming]], and [[drill]]. ~~Army recruits are often instructed in the firing and care of [[gun\|guns]]; Navy recruits get a short introduction to [[firefighting]].~~ ~~See [[saltpetre]]~~
