MoD to begin one-day military training courses for civilians

Poland's Defence Ministry and the Polish Armed Forces are to begin organising one-day military training sessions for adult citizens eager to learn basic combat and survival skills.
Designed for Polish nationals aged 18-65, the training will be organised in 17 military units across Poland.
In addition to gun handling, shooting and hand-to-hand fighting, trainees will learn how to make a fire and purify water, and how to find directions without using a GPS.
In addition to learning the basics of gun handling, shooting and hand-to-hand fighting, trainees will also acquire basic survival skills, such as how to make a fire and purify water.
They will also learn how to find directions without using a GPS and provide first aid, the ministry said in a statement on Monday.
The training sessions will take place every Saturday in October and November and the army will provide food and insurance to participants.
