The military, under the guidance and supervision of regimental instructors, carried out a series of theoretical and practical activities at the "Gonzaga" barracks, home to the 152nd regiment, in which they implemented the skills in handling and using weapons supplied, acquired day and night navigation techniques, received notions of first aid and on the chemical, bacteriological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) threat.

To complete the amalgam process, a five-day continuous training activity was developed during which the military put into practice the theoretical notions previously acquired, walking over 70 kilometers of particularly compartmentalized and demanding itineraries identified in the area of ​​the municipality of Desulo, in the province of Nuoro, within the Gennargentu natural park.
