I tried actually going for a few weeks but I ended up destroying a book from the Restricted Section by doodling in the margins and nearly had a panic…

First Term Paper My Senior Enlisted Leader, Senior Chief Medina, stressed that even though he believes there is a clear right answer to this case study, but it is not an easy decision to make. The mission is very important, and in the Constitutional Paradigm the mission falls just below the Constitution. Accomplishing the mission would make the Skipper look good and in doing so make me, the Division Officer, look good. Great measures must be taken to accomplish the mission, but the mission is…
