The Combat Leader’s Course was designed to prepare Screaming Eagles for leadership (NCO) positions. It was attended by LRRP's, Ranger's and Recon troops in addition to line personnel. Students set up LZ’s, studied map reading, medivac procedures and instruction on calling artillery strikes. Students also rappelled from towers and helicopters, learned sling loading (CH-47) and ladder insertion and extraction techniques. Combat Leader's Course certificate and information provided by SP4 Len Blachly (B 2/501, RVN 69-70, WIA 4-9-70 in the Ashau Valley).
