Military nurse

Graduating from high school I didn’t know what I wanted to do in life I had so many choices of universities to attend. I really didn’t like being in school too much and doing work or completing assignments or the hassle of doing projects. So when I was in high school recruiters would come and recruit people to join their branch of service. I ended up signing up for active duty for the army and serving three years, there are two different types of components which you can sign up for active duty…

history of the program. Having the first class being made up of Army medics and Navy corpsman gives me great pride to have served in the military.

Since I was a little girl, I have wanted to be a part of the military. I was fascinated with the sacrifice that was continuously given by soldiers, the call to a cause bigger than themselves, the hard work, the loyalty, and the risk and the bond soldiers shared with each other.

foreign, and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God. For many taking this oath is not a decision that comes easily. For most it may take months if not years debating and trying to convince loved ones, why their choice is right for them. Due to my family’s history of…

that women could be an asset, not a detriment, to demanding military positions. Still, any combat related job within each branch had a rule of no females. That all changed in December 2015 when the United States Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter stated that all roles in the military were now open to women.
