Recon Rope

Master the 12 Recon Knots Recon candidates have earned the nickname “Ropers” because they are required to wear a rappelling rope around their shoulders for the entirety of training. In fact, candidates must show proficiency in tying 12 specific knots in order to get into the Basic Reconnaissance Course. While it's common for Recon candidates to be focused on areas of physicality, such as running, rucking, and swimming, it's often the little things that are overlooked that can lead to a potential drop from selection. One of these areas is the knot-tying test out. Why the Recon Rope?
