It's a piece of cake. Just read all the rules first.

Everybody (myself included) and his brother and sister has the AA badge, so it is not the toughest course in the army. Back in the days of yore (1975) I went from a 101 rifle company** to the AA school without special preparation. In many ways it was seen as a vacation from daily duty. Today it may be the toughest, hardest, meanest, bloodiest thing out there...but I doubt it.

**C/2/327 which did a 25 mile road march in 6 hours and some minutes.

I am in the Air Assault Course as I type. It is a piece of cake. Zero Day is the "toughest" day, but if you are in any type of physical shape it will be easy. You should not worry.
