  1. Combat Diver Qualification Course WHO: Cadet Daniel Bradford WHAT: Combat Diver Qualification Course (CDQC) WHEN: Summer 2013 WHERE: Key West, Florida SUMMARY: CDQC starts in Key West, Florida a week before the course began with about 25 other ROTC Cadets. During this week, Cadets train on the prerequisites for the course. These included a PT test, 5 mile run, underwater knot tying, drown proofing, weight belt swim, equipment recovery, 50m subsurface lap, and surface swims in the ocean. The following week the course actually began. The schedule was similar to the first week but it was significantly harder. Everything got more serious and the training more focused. This phase is when the majority of the class quit the course. About 15 to 20 guys quit the first day. The second week of the course started with familiarization of open circuit diving equipment (scuba tanks). Once everyone had become familiarized with the equipment, the train up for the famed one man confidence test began and then the two man confidence. The remaining weeks were split into Bleach landing and zodiac operations. Cowboy Strong!
