Recognition training starts on the 7th of March and concludes on the 9th. My C2C described it as BCT on steroids. It is very intensive training over a couple of days, much of what goes on is a guarded secret (especially squad specific things). Once it is over and you have been recognized, many of the rules for C4C's are relaxed. C4C's are closer to being considered upperclassmen. It occurs before Spring Break so you are able to wear civilian clothes on your flight or travels to your location of choice.
