Transformation of the United States Army

My partner, Alexia, and I had to make a propaganda poster about the military. We decided that we wanted to design a poster that included symbols and other words connecting to fighting for your own country. When we were trying to come up with a theme we thought about the Marines. For the people seeing this poster, we wanted them to join the military/Marines and tell others so it could be a chain. Some images provided was one of them being an American flag. We chose this because we used the…

Motivation for Tattoos Tattoos and psychological standpoints on them are a bountiful topic full of study and data collection ranging from gender, race and perception and many more why people get tattoos is always discussed. In the words of Dillon Haley, and the American Psychological Association (2017) “The general motivations for getting tattoos and piercings have tended to fall into the same three categories for hundreds of years:(a) a symbol of an important past event, love, or friendship,…

When you’re in the army, everything should be tough and masculine. There are no rooms for sissies and softies. You must be hard enough to face any enemies and show that no stuff could defy your toughness. Everything that’s related with un-masculine stuff should be left at home. That’s how you show your toughness in the army! No, being a sissy is not allowed in the army. Especially when you’re marching in front of the people in while under a platoon, no sissy-ness should be present. All should be…

both independently and interdependently, I performed other functions outside of the office including simultaneous interpretation (English & Korean), communications liaison, logistical operations support, and regional reconnaissance. Working in the Army cultivated me with leadership, respect, duty, and selfless service, but more importantly, I learned to pursue a goal assiduously even under pressure and to never give up until the mission is accomplished.…

to soldiers of any MOS who personally engage or are engaged by the enemy in combat operations (“Combat Action Badge,” n.d.). Gragg acknowledged concerns by responding, “We are not trying to cheapen anything. What we’re trying to do is enhance our Army. We’re trying to increase soldier readiness” (Koesler, 2017). Nonetheless, it is undetermined if soldiers who have earned the CAB will be eligible to earn the EAB. Currently, an Infantryman who has earned the Combat Infantryman Badge (CIB) and…

It had only been a week since my last major mission, and I was already planning another one. After I had gotten back to my hideout, I had changed shirts and grabbed my macrobinoculars and rifle before leaving again. Which lead to me sitting on a rooftop across from an Imperial base roughly 500 miles away from the one that had blown up. I held my binoculars with one hand, jotting down notes in my open notebook about their security with the other. Recon today, strike day after tomorrow, I decided…

of team rubicon, a nationwide non profit organization founded in January of 2012, to provide military veterans with the opportunity to continue to serve, connect and feel part of a team. Prior to team rubicon, Jake served as a sergeant in the United States Marine Corps with deployments to both Iraq and Afghanistan as a scout sniper. Received numerous awards in combat and was the honor graduate of recruit training, the school of infantry and marine scout sniper course. Received bachelor’s degree…

This presented me with a tricky problem. Army command needs an accurate count of battle-ready tanks in case of deployment. Companies send weekly reports on the maintenance status of their tanks to their battalion, and this data is passed on to the highest levels of army command. The army aims for ninety percent readiness in case of war. The outgoing officer's dishonesty was inconsistent with my (and his) military training; officers trained at the United States Military Academy take an oath from…

as the rest. We need people who are ready to serve military service and fight for our country. I feel that, to have a strong, powerful, and dedicated army, we will need people who are strong and dedicated. Who is all for military service. If the service just pick anybody to be in the army, how will our country survive? How will we have a strong army? We wouldn't, Simply because the country want to force people who aren't ready for military service. Who would like do something different in their…

In Dec. of 1777-June of 1778,in Valley Forge-Pennsylvania is Washington's winter camp is a very difficult place to live for his continental army. I would have not quit because Washington is getting help from the congressmen and getting supplies. In Valley Forge the conditions were very bad there but some of the soldiers stuck with it. There were lots of people sick but not a lot of them died from the sickness going around. That's why I would not quit because there is lots of help from the…
