Due to my lack of personal responsibility I failed to follow my instructions, therefore I will address the necessity of following instructions and why they are important. In the army if you do not follow instructions from your Noncommissioned officer which is a lawful order then you could get an article fifteen. An example of this is if a soldier was told to write a five-hundred word essay from their Noncommissioned officer and only wrote two hundred then they could get that article fifteen.…

When I first wanted to join AROTC I thought it was just about being an Army soldier while in school. I actually didn’t know what to expect or what I was getting myself into I was a clean sleight. I had no idea that AROTC was dealing with being an officer and all the roles officers played. Once enrolling I started thinking the words “Army Officer” meant nothing but paper and desk work. Later to find out that the words “Army Officer” has a much deeper passionate meaning than I thought. Over the…

One of the challenges a Soldier endures every two to three years is relocation. Moving from one duty station to the next is a responsibility of a Soldier fulfilling his or her obligation toward his or her line of duty. Although the relocation of a Soldier can be difficult, involving a single Soldier or a Soldier with dependents, the army has implemented a program to resolve some of the issue a Soldier may encounter during transition. The Total Army Sponsorship Program (TASP) assists Soldiers…

The combat and garrison environments are each unique in their own aspects. The combat environment depends on the garrison for many things. ‘We train as we fight’ is one of the more specific examples. Leadership in these environments is no different. Although dependent on the garrison environment the combat environment is much more complex. The leadership that is honed while in garrison helps prepare Leaders for combat. There is less control over Soldiers in a garrison environment than in a…

I believe that the 4th ABCT climate is toxic and only getting worse. There are many instances where leaders did not work as a team. There were times where leaders used coercion, intimidation, and other unscrupulous tactics to garner compliance from Soldiers. Leaders feel as if independent thinking is discouraged. I also uncovered other tactics like hazing that break down the moral, and welfare of the Soldiers. After completing my assessment of the 4th ABCT I have discovered that significant…
