On September 1st, 2016, Colin Kaepernick decided to kneel as the National Anthem was being played during the 49’ers regular season game. In that moment, he forgot what that very song stood for. He decided to ignore the thousands of men that have died in honor of that song. Every vote that has been cast in order to keep our freedom alive was dwindled into nothingness when this man refused to stand. Each man or woman that has furthered our freedom in a courageous fight for their rights had…

Should women be allowed to fight on the front lines alongside men? Well that is a very iffy topic. There’s been debates on lowering the the toughness of the training or making a special training program for woman yet when it really comes to it, shouldn’t women have to go through the same training so we know that they would be able to make it and do the same things as men? The topic about women being on the front line with men is a very talked about subject in the military. As of right now the…

Governments around the world today are using child soldiers as expendable, Frontline combatants in armed conflicts around the world. Every day in countries around the world, vicious warlords and military generals kidnap children from their homes and use them to further their own goals of national conquest. These children are made to kill hundreds of people and are manipulated into thinking that what they are doing is righteous. The use of child soldiers can be mitigated by supporting the…

First we have the air component which is made up of the Air Force, civilian contractors, and aviation assets from the other branches. They are responsible for air lifting vast quantities of goods in and out of theater as well as then distributing them out to the smaller FOB’s. Next we have the naval component which…

After being in military school for my whole high school career, I decided I would like to continue the trend into college. I feel as though the structure provided by military schools is unmatched when compared to other schools. For college I believe that the military school environment would help me out the most. My next thing to figure out is what major do I wish to pursue? I really don’t know about majors and jobs that would be fun to have. The only thing I know is I would like a fun and…

Why Women Should be in Battle Do you think it is fair for women not to go into battle even if they want to help out the military? Even though women are thought of being weak, some women are more capable than other men in battle. The issue is that people never think of women strong. They just think of men and how men are stronger. I think that women should go to battle because they train for the same thing as men. If people need examples and why women should be in combat, I will explain and…

Certain professions are better suited to men, while other professions are better suited to women. Serving in the military is better suited to men. Men are better by dealing with the sight of body been shot and blood everywhere in combat. A woman not as strong as men physically or mentally when it comes to combat. Them they wouldn’t be able to handle it like men. Modern military conflicts put every soldier, male or female, directly in the line of fire. “Yet women in uniform are not afforded…

After reading the student handout, “An Army White Paper, The Profession of Arms”, you come across two important definitions. The first definition you come across is The Profession of Arms, in which it states “The Army is an American Profession of Arms, a vocation compromised of experts certified in the ethical application of land combat power, serving under civilian authority, entrusted to defend the Constitution and the rights and interests of the American people.” The second definition you…

I believe that SOF using F3EAD is better suited to the targeting process while deployed and in a current OPTEMPO. This is due to our composition, mission, and organic staffing process. It is not a better process than D3A, it is a different process that allows SOF to use their tactical level fusion of intelligence and operation to expedite their targeting process. Since SOFs composition and organization is different, our commanders trust this process to ODAs that are highly trained, mature, and…
