1. just actions the student has to become familiar with before doing processes. The actual process is never used as a drill. Because it is left unflat. A drill takes the action the auditor will use when doing a process and gets him familiar with it. (HCO PL 17 May 65, Tech Div, Qual Div, Urgent CCHs)

2. the aim and object of drills are to make the duties assigned to individual men in preparation for an emergency so well understood and so well known that the duties will be dependably performed under abnormal conditions. Each drill has several stations and particular duties. It isn't enough just to know the location of your assigned post. You must know: (1) what your post is; (2) where it is; (3) who's in charge; (4) specifics of what you actually do, operation of equipment, etc. (FO 910)

3. disciplined, repetitious exercise as a means of teaching and perfecting a skill or procedure. (ED 118 Flag)

5. exercises, processes. (PAB 82)
