I've been out for a minute so there is no rush to answer this one, just a general curiosity thing. As a Marine, I went through MCMWTC and it was some of the best training I've ever had. I'm curious how it compares/ contrast to the Army's Mountain Warfare School?

The only mountain training that really counts is mountain phase of Ranger school. It was such good training I did it twice.

I'm sure some of you here know someone who through mountain or Alpine Warfare School?

Hopefully this video will help you compare and contrast and maybe others can type in with their own personal experiences.
