Why I Want To Be A Candidate

Ever since I was a young boy i've always dreamt about being in the military. It would be an honor to be able to serve our country. I have so much deference for active military personnel and military veterans. All those people that served or are currently serving have great courage.

A reason why I think I would be a excellent candidate for the Navy is because I work well with other people. I would aggrandize to communicate with other people and work in groups.

Another reason why I would be good for the military is because I am a very determined person. If I can't do something I won't just give up, I will keep going until I get it done. I like to believe I can achieve everything I put mind to.
I conclude I would also be great for the Navy because I like that type of work. When I join the Navy I am going to try to be a Hull Maintenance Technician (HT).

I'm prepared for not seeing my friends and family for a long period of

    The occupation of becoming a navy seal fits my skills and interests because I have always loved the military ever since I was born, and it has always been in my blood to be able to react under high stress situations. This is a job that I would be good at because I have always been a marksman, and I am always been a team player.
