powerless in the world." This story proves that we do not have the power to overthrow a force as powerful and strong as nature. The author, Roger Rosenblatt, is pushing the theme of, nature conquering all things human, through his story,The Man In The Water. To begin, in Rosenblatt’s story he shows ways that nature overpowers human life by comparing nature strength to a man at the corner of death. When Air Florida Flight 90 went down in the Potomac River it killed a lot of people on the plane…

vision,integrity, and persistence. All of these things I use to help my team get the mission accomplished. First of all, foresight, or seeing beyond the horizon, to me means to prepare now with the luxury of time that might not be available later.

The Issue of Sexual Assault in the Military In 2013 there were 28,700 military members that were sexually assaulted (Cernak). It is one of the largest issues in the United States military and it is being handled very poorly. All of the militaries time and money being out towards sexual assault are being used on repetitive training that is obviously not working because the numbers of sexual assaults going the wrong direction every year. Because of this training, victims know the options…

discrimination. These would be issues that would have to be evaluated before trying to implement this full force for the entire military. Minorities have been contributing factors in the military through the years, but not to the extent that they should be when it comes to being in the elite ranks of officers. Having examples and leaders to enforce the importance of a diverse Armed Force will help to not limit their skills and to open up doors for those who might not have been giving the…
