Old black and white photographs from the military are always fascinating, they have a funny way to make you imagine yourself in that particular time and place. They can also make you lose yourself for a few seconds when you look at them. One particular thing to notice in the photographs is that all of the serviceman looked very fit and none of them overweight. The majority of serviceman in old photographs actually looked very skinny. Photographs in current times look very different, not every…

the primary method to attract more women towards the military. Recruitment of women needs to be done through educating women on the career opportunities that are available. Education alone will not change women’s views on the military, strong female role models within the military are equally necessary. As of 2011 females representation is at 14.5%, yet they make up only 7.3% of general officers (Harvey and Allard, 2015, p. 230). If the military wants to attract the best and brightest soldiers,…

gender inequality existing on a national level, exploration into the existence in the military will be the focus of this paper. In 2016 there were roughly 215,000 women serving as active…

sleep are just a few things that come to mind when military enlistment is brought up. Most people shudder at the mere idea of devoting four years of their life to a “job” that pushes them beyond their breaking point. What most people fail to realize is that every hurdle the military throws at them is to better prepare them not only for what battle lies ahead but life after the military as well. Some of the greatest benefits of enlisting in the military are world travel, job security, and…

dodgers R. Lee Ermey was talking about. I doubt that he had the same attitude as Ermey, but then again, he was in Army Communications during the war, not the Marine Corps. Recently, February 10, 2018 to be exact, when my grandfather recounted his military service from 1968-1970, he shared with me some valuable life lessons he gained. Having registered before that time, as was required…

our military members are taught to take orders from superior officers no matter if they agree with the orders or not. One of our military foundations is to obey. Soldiers are taught from boot camp to obey with no questions asked. If they don’t listen to orders given to them by superiors they are punished. When a solider commits a crime due to an order coming from a superior officer I believe that the superior officer should be at fault. When an individual…

Many female members of the military have shown abilities to be able to take on the same roles as their male counterparts. They have proven through physical and mental training that they can in fact lead and execute operations during times of combat. During the revolutionary war, women were a part of the war effort. However, they were forced to disguise themselves to serve alongside men. Once accepted into the military, they were usually assigned auxiliary roles. After world war two, women…

research significant to challenges experienced by military veterans will serve as the foundation for a successive presentation of previous findings. Culture of the Army Reserve Although the military is made up of individuals from varied cultural backgrounds, they all share the experience of assimilation into military culture. During military initial entry training (IET), trainees are removed from their civilian culture and introduced to military culture. This process occurs in three stages:…

rather than demolishing life. When it comes to enlisting into the military, women do still have the opportunity to join and according to protocol; women are not officially allowed to fight alongside the male soldier’s side. Many individuals today think that women have a lack of aggressiveness, and because of that there could be an outcome of the women soldiers being raped. That situation could lead to a potential damage to any military coherence because it could cause other to look down on women…

the above statements. The importance of the military in the United States can lead us to believe that they are the best of the best. We put our full faith and confidence in them and hope they do not let us down. In order to ensure that this does not happen, it is important to understand the weaknesses…
