Xu De-Yu rings a bell to officially end his time at the Amphibious Reconnaissance and Patrol unit training camp at Zuoying navy base, Kaohsiung, southern Taiwan, December 19, 2021. The trainees have to endure everything from long marches to hours in the water, with constant screaming at by their instructors. Of the group of 31 who started the program, only 15 finished.
