One of the many things Sailors learn in boot camp is how to handle weapons. They are trained in everything from safety practices to marksmanship. Watch this group of recruits as they go through the small arms portion of the training.
@NavyBoyLT When I was at "Great Mistakes" I believe we only fired rifles. Anyway I really sucked. At the indoor shooting range I shot a hole clip never once hitting the target. LOL. The Company CPO, gave me a little shit over the matter, then gave another fellow a second crack at my target. The CPO responded , you don't need to know how to shoot as your going to be a Corpsman anyway. Never had to retake the shooting test. And yes I became a Hospital Corpsman.
Man ,all we did was classroom instruction ,out to the indoor range to shoot converted .45's to shoot .22lr . Didn't care if we even hit the target .they expected you to get more training when you went out to the fleet . This was back in 88' when they had a navy bootcamp in San Diego .

@FilmMaster1001 this is an honest question and I was wondering, when using live fire, is the experience different from FPS games?
