The unit has a long standing tradition and takes much pride in its ability to conduct effective, productive and enjoyable field training activities and exercises. Each Platoon runs its own, individual training program that is tailored to the experience and skill level of the cadets. 206 ACU stages one weekend bivouac per term as part of its annual company training program.

The pics in this Gallery were taken by the 3-PLT (RCT) Comd, SSGT Mollard and we thank him for his fine work with the camera by helping to capture the highlights of the bivouac.
