Command

The Divine command theory is a meta - ethical theory which states that an action is obligatory if and only if, it is commanded by God. In this essay, I will examine whether any form of divine command theory is defensible. In defence, I shall begin by looking at the modified theory as proposed by Robert Adams. Secondly, I will attempt to assess objections from Plato, Austin and Wainwright; before proceeding to evaluate whether these objections are successful in demeaning this theory. Let us take…

ABOUT FACE Good luck. “About” is the preparatory command, and “FACE” is the command of execution. This will take practice. There are also “half right” and “half left” faces. If you’re getting “half-right, FACE”d then you done messed up. Where people stand in formation Marching The person in charge will call the squad, platoon, or larger, to attention. He/she will then “right, FACE” the group. The preparatory command “forward” will be given, followed by “MARCH”. Every soldier in the group will…

and religion together. It is believed by many that morality is understood based on religion. “The Divine Command Theory”, states that behavior is considered morally right if commanded by God and morally wrong if it is forbidden by God. The theory also provides a strong reason on why people believe morality is something that they should worry about. However in the passage “The Divine Command Theory”, James Rachels’ stands his ground when he claims that God is unnecessary for ethics and…

.S. Northern Command (NORTHCOM) consistently exercises and tests for emergency preparedness to perform its homeland defense and civil support missions. The goal is to train as you fight to prepare for future wicked problems. NORTHCOM has an active exercise program, but the involvement of interagency partners and states require improvement according to the U.S. Government Accountability Office. Its exercise program is consistent with the requirements of DoD's Joint Training System, but…

The Incident Command System provides effective management of large scale incidents. Additionally, the system is composed of many vital positions needed to be successful. One such position is the Public Information Officer (PIO). The PIO has a tremendous role in ICS which is integrated across an entire incident. Moreover, a PIO must have certain skills, qualifications, and characteristics to be successful. Therefore, an Emergency Management Agency must carefully screen all prospective candidates…

One potential issue for Congress outlined by Andrew Feickert is the question of alternatives to Combatant Commands (COCOMs) (Feichert, 63). Citing COCOMs as a Cold War relic and militarized approach relevant for conflicts with known state actors and conventional forces, an alternative more suited to the current environment are Joint Interagency Organizations (Ibid.). Placing a strongly credentialed civilian in charge and answerable to the National Security Council (NSC), with a 4-star general as…

Hi Nadja, I think today we can hardly imagine a time when the Executive Branch was second in command to Congress, but based on what we learned in the last section, that is actually what the framers had intended. Remember how it was still fresh in their minds that they had emerged from under a monarchy and they intended to never experience that again? Also, that many delegates refused to attend the Constitutional Convention? That was because they had no desire for a centralized government and…

Strategic decisions made on both sides presented Fighter Command with the victory and ensured that they did not come close to defeat. Germany suffered from ‘fog of war ‘and was clearly not prepared for the battle ahead; arrogantly predicting to overcome the RAF in a matter of days with a false sense of superiority after success in France; and misjudging RAF aircraft force. The Luftwaffe started the battle with 2830 aircraft, made up of fighters, bombers and stuka dive bombers. The RAF comprised…

times more than a pity position as ancient. I am worthy to be the heir of second-in-command. If Othello holds me dear, I ask why he rewarded me the position of a flag boy. Because of this disrespect, I can no longer love Othello, for he disgraced me, and he cannot be my master no longer. The great general that the people praise him to be is nothing but an ass; a fool for choosing a "wise man” as second-in-command. Has he not seen my superb performance in the battle, and is he not aware of my…
