Military science

tidal wave of emerging trends that not too long ago would have been considered science fiction. These trends are affecting every aspect of our lives and causing us to rethink what is normal and even acceptable in our society. One of the primary occurrences in these trends seems to be removing the human element from more and more tasks. The advances in robotics and drones shows this on a daily basis. In the military, I see that the push to remove men and women from harm’s way is driving the…

their respective approaches to warfare in regards to tactics, strategy, and motivation of personnel, and actions to achieve victory. Both militaries displayed several of the modern Principles of War and used them in practice during planning and execution phases of operations. The Chinese and Roman empires were military superpowers of their regions. Modern militaries have incorporated principles taught and learned from the era into current strategies and tactics. Many of the strategic and…

during the war. On his journeys, Steinbeck recorded many aspects of the war that would otherwise go unnoticed. Throughout Steinbeck’s travels, he records accounts of how soldiers adjusted to military life, how life continued during the war, and how the soldiers reacted during combat. Adjusting to military life is no easy task. One day you are at home with a loving family and a warm meal, the next you are on a crowded boat with hundreds of other soldiers, waiting to eat subpar food. In the army…

The integration of women into the military ranks have added to the strength and diversity of our military. Women can bring in a different perspective to problem solving and new approaches to military situations. Consequently, there are still those that believe the United States military will not maintain its status of a super power due to the integration of women into the combat positions. The United States public on a whole have not supported the position that women will adversely affect the…

In the book For Cause & Comrades: Why Men Fought In The Civil War by James McPherson there were many important motivations, along with differences and similarities in motivation between Union and Confederate soldiers. McPherson wrote this book in order to figure out “What made these men do it? What motivated them to advance into that wall of fire? What caused them to go forward despite the high odds against coming out safely?” (McPherson, 3). He read through “at least 25,000 personal letters…

understand how I will implement my techniques to achieve my purpose as a leader. Above all, the lesson of “personality” helped me to articulate the purpose statement authentically. In addition, encouraging teamwork and unity, which is a part of the military culture, and encouraging this new idea into people will require the process of re-socialization for…

Throughout time constant communication was key to winning battles, especially in today’s modern military. Every commander must know what goes on, when, where and how constantly in order to effectively control their units. However, constant communication is never certain, and it is up every subordinate to be prepared to make on decisions on the spot in the mission. The United States army currently uses Mission Command, which is defined by ADRP 6-0 as the “exercise of authority and direction by…

When people see a soldier, people usually picture brave, rugged and strong person. Sometimes the media show an aspect of a Soldier that is negative. When young soldiers see a high ranking soldier, they are immediately intimidated. Sebastian Camacho is in front of many soldiers teaching a class on land navigation. His presence catches everyone’s eyes. Soldiers listen very closely to what he has to say. It was obvious that people trust what he says by his words. Soldiers observe at this high…

help protect our country from harm. Unfortunately, these military force groups have the same problem as well as any other work force. You might say that it’s disorganized, or it may be that we have too much or too little in the force. It could be either of those issues at hand, but one of our main issues today is allowing homosexuals to join our military. Many members are OK with it, but a good majority of them are not. In the article “Military Discharges Drop Due To Homosexual Policy…

situations will challenge you the most to maintain a strong sense of personal and professional integrity? I have exhibited strong integrity while in the military service. In the army one of the seven-army values is integrity. In the military I would come across several brass ammunition cartridges.
