Near the end of World War Two, United States (US) forces form the East and Union of Soviet Socialist Republic (USSR) forces from the West were swiftly moving throughout Europe, liberating countries from German…

Why is accountability important in the United States Army? In order to properly understand why accountability is important, it’s prominent that the regulation, AR 600-8-6, be reviewed first.

Our professional ethic is expressed in law, Army Values, creeds, oaths, ethos, and shared beliefs embedded within Army culture. It inspires and motivates the conduct of Army Professionals.” I would like to think the Army Ethic mirrors the Army Values that you can’t have one and not have the other, both must be present in order for…

The Vietnam War was a diversified battle not only in race, but in circumstance. Men were forced to leave their families to take part in gruesome battle. Blood, sweat, and tears were shed not only in combat, but in the homes of the anxious loved ones left behind.

Most of the challenge is mostly in integrating the US Army department and the US Air Force.

The United States Army has been around for over three centuries. In that time, there have been millions of people over time who can say that they were soldiers at one point in their lives. At least half of these soldiers can say that they or someone they know were deployed in a combat environment. In their case, having common sense is vital to living and can be the difference between victory and defeat on the battlefield. Common sense for a soldier is fire discipline, knowing who is at their…

Drafted Into A Man In 1917, during World War I, the Unites States government enacted the Selective Draft Act to build up the national army. This required men ages 18-45 to register for military involvement. Ultimately, it inspired a patriotic attitude and an honorable image making it very successful (Wikipedia).
