drill field
Formation practice grounds
A drill field is a large, flat, open area used for military training exercises, marching practice, and formations.
Most commonly found at military bases, academies, and universities with ROTC programs: Cadets assembled on the drill field at dawn.
The term sometimes extends to any large grassy expanse on a campus, even when no longer used for drilling.
