History
The Buena War College required every cadet, whether front line soldier or technician, to serve for six months in the training battalion. This provided the cadets with practical knowledge to supplement the theory they received in the academy's classrooms. The cadets in the battalion also underwent a series of live fire exercises on the Tomasova Martial Range, and field deployments in the Bolan Province and Timbuktu Theater were also common. Instructors in the battalion also forced the cadets to operate at their physical and mental limits. The harsh discipline forced the cadets to adapt their classroom lessons to a practical format and work as part of a team. Cadets who were unable to do so washed out of the program.[1]
During the Jihad the Buena War College Training Battalion reduced their student's service cycles from six months to three months. After the end of the Jihad, the battalion found that two thirds of its equipment was removed and reassigned to active duty LAAF units to rebuild.[2]
