Job Corps

One of the hardest parts about going to work every day is knowing that at the end of your shift the only thing you have effectively done has been sitting in a chair. A problem that plagues the ICBM force is that we perform a job 24 hours a day 365 days a year since the first Minute Man III was put in place without ever having to do our mission. Taking a step back, this is a great thing because if we were to ever carry out our mission there would be an unsurmountable number of casualties…

gift when it comes to computers for I would take them apart and put them back together. For as long as I can think I have been the one person my family goes to when they have a problem so it only fits that I go into computer tech. I have chosen Job Corps because it gave me a chance to better myself and turn my life around. I chose the San Diego campus because I have heard nothing but things about this campus. I also chose this campus because I have always wanted to visit San Diego so this gave…

objective for which she was searching. Since the work was monotonous and unfulfilling, she was inspired to join the Peace Corps. There, she found laborious tasks and stressful situations, but she also served the world more in two years than many do in their entire life. Yilan was, in a sense, the essence of a volunteer. She found her purpose in helping others through the Peace Corps, a venerable organization that has served to greatly improve the lives of people outside of the United States.…

As you might notice from my title, I have decided to place my interest on two different readings; The Good Man and Still I Rise. Both of these reading are wonderful pieces that spark my interest and exert the qualities from Marywood’s core values. The readings are extremely similar and different. The both show Empowerment, Excellence, and show a great deal of respect, but they show all of those qualities in different ways. To start off, the readings are similar because of the strong core values…

Unlike the low casualty rate at Vimy, the Battle of Passchendaele led to sacrifices that were not met with any gain; in addition the battle’s senseless nature also disappointed the entire country. British forces insisted Canadian Corps take Passchendaele Ridge in late 1917, and although battleground conditions were dangerous, Britain felt little to no concern, and demanded Canada act immediately. Canada defied expectation and took the low ridge within two weeks of hard fighting,…

Narrative- On 13Feb17 at 1306 hrs. I, Deputy Halbasch, was asked to speak with Cristin Burmayer in reference to her daughter, Sara Evans, skipping school on a regular basis recently. Cristin informed me she wished for Sara to be placed at Evergreen Shelter in Bemidji as Sara once again skipped school in Walker. Cristin stated she had to depart this morning for work before Sara was to get a ride to school from her friend, Madison Zismer. Later in the morning, Cristin found out from the school…

By the end of June 5th, the battalion was lightened and sent to the Vancouver Camp at Chateau de la Haie. The conditions there were considerable nicer than that of the trenches. While at the camp, his brigade had a special visitor’ Corps. Commander Sir. Julian Byng. All the officers paraded and thanked for their loyal service as he became recently promoted. But only being a private, Lacon Piercy was not among their numbers. Wretchedly, their time at the Chateau came to an end, as the 12th of…

Every year I spend half of my summer hiking the Rocky Mountains of Montana with my mom and the other half climbing the Cascade Mountains of Washington State with my dad. I have grown up in two different states because of my parents divorce. However, I don 't have an innate sense of pride for one state but a pride for the two separate and unique mountain ranges that have shaped who I am today. When I am in the free and open space of a forest with the cool summer breeze flowing through my hair and…

days after Vimy Ridge, a month before his confinement, and later published online on the website Canadian Letters on November 2013. The Letter served the function of informing the receiver about the situation on the battlefield, where the Canadian corps had defeated the Germans in Vimy Ridge. Letters were the most convenient and efficient…

Vimy Ridge is an escarpment and it was where the battle occurred. Canadian Corps had to take control of the high ground to get an advantage but it was already held down by the German Sixth Army. This proved to be a difficult task and Canadian Corps underwent weeks of training to prepare for this battle. Victory was highly dependent on the heavy artillery fire so they could use it as cover. In the end, Canada came…
