The Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) has completed the field training of its cadets of Direct Short Service (DSSC) Course 26 Army, and Course 30 Air Force.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the Battle of Inoculation is the final outdoor field training for the cadets which was held at Table Hill Nigerian Army Training Area in Kachia Local Government Area.
The cadets are expected to be commissioned into the Armed Forces of Nigeria on Dec 17.
The guest of honour at the Battle Inoculation exercise, the Air Secretary, AVM Paul Jemitola, commended the NDA for churning out well-trained officers.
He noted that it was quite useful for the country, especially in the quest to fight insurgency and other forms of insecurity.
He said this was to improve the efficiency and battle readiness of the combat troops in the face of the challenging security situation of today.
” The need for improved tactical training aimed at stimulating real battle situations and other complex operational scenarios that play out in the real battlefield cannot be over-emphasised.
” Only resilient, strong, and flexible individuals make better team members in an operational situation and other complex situations”, Jemitola said.
