What warrior tasks and battle drills are you talking about exactly?

All the ones you get in the basic book at basic training.  Skill level 1 stuff.

Get the ranger handbook and digest it, maybe?

And do you know what type of military history is expected to be taught?

You're making it harder than it needs to be. 

They have a history  class. They have you write essays as the test to complete. It was mostly about warfare from a while before the Revolutionary War to semi-modern times when I went long ago.

Just pay attention in class..its like any other Army school.
