Marine Corps Pfc. Jerod J Salano, son of Nancy R. Tremah of Pueblo, CO and Nathan R Salano of Pueblo, CO, recently completed basic training at Marine Corps recruit depot, San Diego.
Salano successfully completed 12 weeks of training designed to challenge new Marine recruits both physically and mentally.
Salano and fellow recruits began their training at 5 a.m., by running three miles and performing calisthenics. In addition to the physical conditioning program, Salano spent numerous hours in classroom and field assignment, which included learning first aid, uniform regulations, combat water survival, marksmanship, hand-to-hand combat and assorted weapons training. They performed close order drill and operated as a small infantry unit during field training.
Salano and other recruits also received instruction on the Marine Corps' core values - honor, courage and commitment, and what the words mean in guiding personal and professional conduct.
Salano and fellow recruits ended the training phase with the Crucible, a 54-hour team effort, problem solving evolution, which culminated with an emotional ceremony in which the recruits were presented the Marine Corps Emblem, and were addressed as "Marines" for the first time since boot camp began.
Salano is a 2001 graduate of Centennial High School of Pueblo.
