War can be many things. It can be a solution to countless diplomatic struggles. It can serve as an effort to find peace, and it can also cause many changes to the opposing sides, as well as to the soldiers.War is such a controversial concept because there are so many risks that have the power to lead to death, depression, and even downfalls. Dalton Trumbo expresses these downfalls with his anti-war feelings in Johnny Got His Gun. World War I is shaking countless lives in this book, and the main…

Should women be allowed to fight on the front lines alongside men? Well that is a very iffy topic. There’s been debates on lowering the the toughness of the training or making a special training program for woman yet when it really comes to it, shouldn’t women have to go through the same training so we know that they would be able to make it and do the same things as men? The topic about women being on the front line with men is a very talked about subject in the military. As of right now the…

First we have the air component which is made up of the Air Force, civilian contractors, and aviation assets from the other branches. They are responsible for air lifting vast quantities of goods in and out of theater as well as then distributing them out to the smaller FOB’s. Next we have the naval component which…

Why Women Should be in Battle Do you think it is fair for women not to go into battle even if they want to help out the military? Even though women are thought of being weak, some women are more capable than other men in battle. The issue is that people never think of women strong. They just think of men and how men are stronger. I think that women should go to battle because they train for the same thing as men. If people need examples and why women should be in combat, I will explain and…

Certain professions are better suited to men, while other professions are better suited to women. Serving in the military is better suited to men. Men are better by dealing with the sight of body been shot and blood everywhere in combat. A woman not as strong as men physically or mentally when it comes to combat. Them they wouldn’t be able to handle it like men. Modern military conflicts put every soldier, male or female, directly in the line of fire. “Yet women in uniform are not afforded…

After reading the student handout, “An Army White Paper, The Profession of Arms”, you come across two important definitions. The first definition you come across is The Profession of Arms, in which it states “The Army is an American Profession of Arms, a vocation compromised of experts certified in the ethical application of land combat power, serving under civilian authority, entrusted to defend the Constitution and the rights and interests of the American people.” The second definition you…

I believe that SOF using F3EAD is better suited to the targeting process while deployed and in a current OPTEMPO. This is due to our composition, mission, and organic staffing process. It is not a better process than D3A, it is a different process that allows SOF to use their tactical level fusion of intelligence and operation to expedite their targeting process. Since SOFs composition and organization is different, our commanders trust this process to ODAs that are highly trained, mature, and…

Education, is the primary method to attract more women towards the military. Recruitment of women needs to be done through educating women on the career opportunities that are available. Education alone will not change women’s views on the military, strong female role models within the military are equally necessary. As of 2011 females representation is at 14.5%, yet they make up only 7.3% of general officers (Harvey and Allard, 2015, p. 230). If the military wants to attract the best and…

Amser snorted. “There, you are wrong, Catherina. They most certainly are the enemy. That’s why I want you to promise me, you and your friends will stay away from protests or rallies. Every rally will be met with force. People like that sergeant and Moeller do what they do because they are soldiers, but the rest do what they do because they are thugs who delight in inflicting pain. I am well aware this is not a game; it’s dangerous and people will die. But for as long as I’m here, I can’t stand…

One of the major factors leading to social discrimination against men is the South Korean military. I served in the Korean army from 2012 to 2014, and my personal impressions of the Korean army are “lack of freedom” and “waste of time.” Korean soldiers are strictly prohibited to interact with the outside world, such as using cell phones. They have to sleep and wake up at appointed time every day. If there are no special occasions, soldiers do military training, watch-service, or various types of…
