MCJROTC students from Eisenhower High School recently participated in a four day field trip to Camp Pendleton. 46 students gave up their spring break to live the Marine Corps experience 24 hours a day.
The annual field trip features an obstacle course, weapons training, rappelling, tear gas exposure, and map reading exercises. These activities are intended to help students face their fear and learn to go beyond it.
The San Bernardino Sun featured the excursion in an article on Tuesday, April 17, 2001. Along with the article, several photos showed the students participating in rappelling and tear gas exposure.
