defensive, evidenced through the Civil War. In the context of the Navy, one of the latest technological innovations is aviation; it was being integrated into the Navy before World War I, but wasn’t advanced enough to be of any major strategic use until World War II. For this reason, the strategic and tactical impact of aviation is most visible through the scope of World War II. With the advent of aviation and its integration into the Navy came a shift in naval strategy and tactics; this…

Islands. While there, the crew of the Essex captured twelve British whalers, one of which was put under the command of Farragut, who was a mere twelve years old at the time. However, while in Valparaiso, Porter’s Essex came in contact with two Royal Navy sloops, the Cherub and Phoebe, which both pounded the Essex. Fighting bravely under Porter’s command, Farragut “witnessed the evisceration of a boatswain’s mate by one shot, the amputation of a quartermaster’s leg by another, and the killing…

members for routine illness, but also worked closely with the psychologist to evaluate the Airmen pre- and post-deployment. I was glued to his hip as he treated conditions that I may never see in civilian life. Spending six years as an active duty US Navy Hospital Corpsman and the experience of taking the pre-requisites helped me define my path. I've worked with multidisciplinary teams to serve patients including being a part of the team that merged the Veteran's Administration and the…

Ability to Operate with Foreign Forces Prior to 1914 the relatively young RAN had yet to take part in any sort of joint coalition operation, however, officers of the British Royal Navy (RN) were integrated into the RAN. This meant that if the need for a joint exercise arose they would have knowledge of how to act through these British officers who had prior experience (for example the Australian fleet was commanded by the RN officer, Rear Admiral George Patey). 11. On the 29th August 1914 the…

America’s borders is a deadly jungle, and only the SEALs' machete can clear a path to freedom. We’re cut to a training camp. Kyle is undergoing SEAL training, and after some exercises and overt racism, we’re at the bar.

It's 9/11 — The world will never be the same again as he comforts his wife who's in tears. Kyle's getting deployed. He and the…

I was born in Rutland, Vt Dec 9, 1950. Moved back to Maine when I was a couple months old. I basically grew up on two farms during the summers with my grand parents. Life was pretty simple back then, compared to today. Grandfather Tibbetts did not have electricity or phones. He worked his 500 acres with his horses or steers. The family all picthed in and helped hay or work in the woods. We learned math and spelling through Cribbage and Scrabble. We read with kerosene lamps or lanterns. My…

The running joke about the Super Hornet is that it is a “jack of all trades, and master of none”. The truth is that the Hornet and specifically the Super Hornet has been required to replace the F-14 Tomcat, the S-3 Viking and the A-6 Intruder.
