    Candidate Hills provided a thorough five paragraph order. Candidate Hills briefed with confidence, placing great emphasis on mission accomplishment, and briefing tasking statements with good detail and purpose, ensuring each member understood their purpose. However, Candidate Hills somehow became disoriented during the execution of movement to contact; he began walking in a 45 degree angle from his direction of attack and had to be guided back onto the correct azimuth by his fire team on at least two occasions before taking a casualty in the scenario. Candidate Hills' emphasis on mission accomplishment, and detailed tasking statements, played out well as he became the casualty requiring his fire team to quickly adapt to the newly developed…

    Candidate Bills delivered a very thorough and in depth five paragraph order. SNC was very diligent in ensuring that all information and additional information was passed to the fire team, at one point causing SNC to stumble over his thought process, and pause for a length of time to recoup his thoughts before moving on. This visibly flustered SNC. SNC lacked a sense of urgency by taking up a substantial amount of time to deliver the order. Upon completing the brief SNC took more time to square himself away failing to give any guidance to the fire team resulting in zero productivity.…

    I selected three primary sources, The Trial of Andrew Johnson, 1868, Ku Klux Klan, 1868, and Kamikaze Attack, 1944. The trial of Andrew Johnson, 1868 is mainly about how the Judiciary Committee finds a way to impeach Andrew Johnson, but Johnson got to stay as a president by one lucky vote. The Ku Klux Klan is about an organization killing slaves and carpet baggers for fun, and how their organization got big in the south. The Kamikaze Attack was a battle between the Japanese and the American Navy, there was a lot of people kill and it explains how bad the battle was. My first primary source is The Trial of Andrew Johnson, 1868, the Radical Republicans where not happy with Andrew Johnson beliefs, Andrew Johnson changed his beliefs about readmitting…

SNC didn’t necessarily radiate command presence but never lost his self-control when faced with various challenges.…

Candidate Henderson repeatedly placed himself in the best position to provide supervision of the mission and then avoided getting tied up with the details that his subordinates could have taken care of.…

When a government, like the British at time, fails to care for its people and take advantage of them, colonists will become impatient and anxious for their rights. At the time, without a doubt, the American Revolution was flared by a chain of events in the colonies. One of the most damaging events was the ‘Boston Massacre’, caused by the continued tension between the government and colonists in the city of Boston, Massachusetts, leading to five unarmed colonists death. The effects of the ‘Boston Massacre’ on the colonies were devastating, and hearing…
