Every cadet at the Academy takes Water Survival, a hands-on class where they swim in OCPs and practice real emergency skills. Cadets learn to control their breathing, stay afloat, rescue a submerged dummy, and even jump from a 10-meter platform. If you’re new to swimming, no worries! Before this course, every cadet completes an introductory swim class to build a strong foundation in the water.

Together, these skills boost confidence, strengthen composure under stress, and prepare cadets to help others in distress. Each challenge pushes them physically and mentally, shaping them for future service as Air Force and Space Force officers.
