| The Combat Courses contained
a series of problems soldiers had to negotiate including a village,
trenchworks, and
an obstacle strewn battlefield complete with mock tank. These courses
included
the Fit to Fight and Infiltration courses among others.
One of the more unique facilities at Croft was the full
scale
mock landing ship. Soldiers were required to descend, with
complete
pack and weapon, from the deck of the "ship" via a cargo net to a
landing
craft below.
