Candidate Kelly's Five Paragraph Order

Decent Essays
Candidate Kelly demonstrated a basic understanding of the five paragraph order. Initially, SNC struggled with his confidence, and he sounded timid and unsure of the information he was briefing to his team. As SNC finished the brief, security was posted, than he looked to the team for advice showing that he did not have a solid initial plan from the beginning. Even though security was posted he was not given a sector of fire and his attention was on the rest of the team. SNC lost control of the team by being indecisive; which allowed the team to make the majority of the decisions as a whole. With SNC allowing this to happen it slowed the team down and they lost focus of the mission at hand. As time went on SNC regained control and began tasking

    Candidate Garnica delivered a five paragraph order that lacked information and used filler words while briefing. She maintained good eye contact with the members of her team and was confident in her delivery. SNC failed to brief any of the "admin and logistics" and "command and signal" paragraphs. Although Candidate Garnica briefed a scheme of maneuver during the brief, it was obvious that she had not created an actual plan before beginning the execution. There was no clear transition between the end of the brief and the start of the execution.…

    SNC took four minutes of his allotted ten minutes developing his brief; SNC’s fire team did not step off to execute until after ten minutes had elapsed. SNC’s Situation paragraph contained detailed information about higher and adjacent units that was not briefed to him. SNC briefed a scheme of maneuver that was based off tactical control measures that he was unable to explain after he was asked what they meant. SNC’s tasking statements did nothing other than assign fire team billets to subordinates; SNC proceeded to brief later on that tactical control measures were not applicable. SNC briefed that the squad leader was with his fire team, which was not accurate.…

    Candidate Lee was not confident at all and because of that his brief was unclear; while briefing the five paragraphs order SNC had a tendency of pausing, coughing, and clearing his throat which made it difficult to understand the order. SNC did not say what parts of the order he was briefing which was confusing.

    By the 1960’s the U.S. was facing multiple tasks to follow where they were facing debt after the end of the second world war and crisis in Berlin. Not to mention President John F. Kennedy’s news conference on April 11, 1962, in which Kennedy gave his opposition view towards large steel companies raising their steel prices by 3.5 percent.

He represents his message to the citizens of the U.S. to see what troubles face them, and to the steel corporations to aware them, what increasing their prices can do to the nation itself.…

    During the presidency of Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States, steel companies began to raise the price of steel by 3.5% which came out to an extra 6 dollars a ton. It may not seem as much, but during this time where America was just recovering from a recession and where every dollar is crucial, it was plentiful. However, the 3.5% increase goes way beyond the monetary value and should be viewed through the perspective that these companies are lacking their moral responsibility towards the U.S. Throughout his speech,Kennedy shows his displeasement with the steel companies and targets them through rhetorical strategies such as foreshadowing, tone, and allusion. Kennedy feels as if the companies have betrayed their fellow American citizens with this inhumane act.…
