What does the military teach you about wilderness survival?

The battles fought by a large number of nations have not always been in ideal climate or terrain areas. To help military personnel survive in less than ideal circumstances, such as surviving and fighting in the wilderness, military maneuvers are performed in wilderness types of possible combat areas.

One example of this is the training of US Marines in semi tropical and swampy forests found in parts of Georgia and South Carolina. Soldiers are taught how to find water, feed themselves & protect themselves from the elements. Thus part of military training is quite often about wilderness survival.
