The Navy did not come to this decision without conducting its own extensive research. The commission of people the Navy enlisted to conduct this research establish a few key points. Shulman argues (2003), “In 1900, consensus of Navy engineers agreed that fuel oil engines would avoid noxious…

To quote the late Scottish poet Robert Burns: “The best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry.” This quote never meant much to me until I watched all of my dreams come crashing down around me on a cold, snowy day in December. I’ll start from the beginning. Since I was young I’d wanted to be in the military. My mother and father always told me stories of their time in the Pineville High School JROTC, (Junior Reserved Officer Training Corps, a type of military training for highschool students)…

My grandmother Norine Revino was a young girl who had recently moved to Hawaii. On the historic morning of December 7, 1941, she was playing in the backyard of her temporary naval residence without a care in the world. That morning would soon turn into ninety minutes of complete horror. "Yesterday, December 7, 1941- a date that will live in infamy- the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan...No matter how long it may…

My interest in the Naval Academy and the fleet began as just another college option. I have not had any family member serve in the Navy and was rather indifferent to military service, other than my admiration for the men and women who serve. As I continued to explore my options, the Naval Academy remained on the backburner until I visited for the summer STEM program two years ago. As soon as I first walked on post, I instantly knew I loved it--the beautiful old architecture, the shimmering blue…

When I grow up, I want to be a marine mammal trainer. This has always been my dream job because I love marine animals more than any other kind of animals. I want to be able to build relationships with them, take care of them, and play with them on a daily basis. I chose this career because I’ll be getting to do what I love every day for a living. This is a very fun and hands-on job. All day you are working with the animals or performing/speaking to the public. Another thing that made me choose…

Marine biology has always been a dream job of mine. I went to the Pittsburgh Zoo when I was eight years old, and I saw the crawl through aquarium and I was amazed. Ever since then I have always wanted to be surrounded by sea animals and help them in any way possible. While I was at the zoo there was this girl, who I can now tell was a marine biologist, who gave a bunch of facts about the stingrays that we were allowed to pet. She would just ramble off from the top of her head about all the…

The British navy, what was first thought to be a second line of defense during the Elizabethan era, after the 1640s, it was realistic to think of it as first line of defense. As Britain rise as a powerful navy, allowing England to flourish as a country as a whole, the question behind Britain’s motivation arises: What was the motivation behind Britain’s naval mastery during the seventeenth and eighteenth century? Different historians, such as Alfred T. Mahan, Roger Morriss, and Paul Kennedy, that…
