I chose to enroll in the United States Navy Sea Cadet Corps for two main reasons: my interests in military aircrafts and the idea that the U.S. Navy will open the doors to the world for me. I can say now that I have completed four years in this program, those two reasons were not the most important ones when looking back and reflecting on how the program has shaped me. I soon realized that being a cadet was not about doing what I liked at all times, but doing what I disliked as well for a long term benefit. During the program's long hour weekend drills and during my stay in the military base of Everett (Washington), it became clear to me that overcoming great challenges and helping others do the same, was a great reward.

This qualification lets everyone know that you are thoroughly familiar with the workings of every aspect of a naval vessel. The importance of this qualification took a significant change a couple of years ago.

In the realm of evaluations if two individuals are equal in every aspect, the individual with the ESWS will get promoted every time. ESWS qualification, unfortunately is a primary tool for evaluating a sailors worth, it is an unfair disadvantage for those individuals on shore going billets or have not yet qualified. This also provides people who can not do the job correctly a way out to look better for a higher promotion opportunity.

Ships have been around for thousands of years, we used them to conquer other countries, to transport food and people, and for our enjoyment. We always need someone to make sure that those ships are running perfect and that it will make it home safe. Those people that work in the ships are called Marine Engineers they are the ones that make sure the ships will make it home. Even though we have been making bigger and better ships we still look back at the older ships and how the Marine Engineering program began.

The U.S. Navy’s Bomb Squad faced a very real problem: Its newest members were being selected for training upon merit alone, with no personality or physical screening process. This was a very real challenge, for the aforementioned reasons of required emotional intelligence and physical toughness. The screener had a very clear mission: “safely and effectively screen Midshipmen in their ability to lead small units under stress while introducing them to the NEOD training pipeline through evaluation by their peers, upper-class, and NEOD technicians”

As Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Jonathan W. Greenert once stated, one of the U. S. Navy’s guiding principles is “People are the Navy’s foundation”. The United States Navy has long since recognized that command at sea is an honor and a unique privilege, one that demands confidence, self-reliance, sound judgment, and complete dedication to the wellbeing of shipmates. At every level of Naval operations, leadership, integrity and character have always been vitally important dimensions of who we are and what we do.

Ensuring that sailors whom are advanced via the MAP program are justified ensures that the semi-annual exam remains the primary competitive tool promoting Sailors. In closing, Frederick Douglas said, “I prefer to be true to myself, even at the hazard of incurring the ridicule of others, rather than to be false, and to incur my own

I believe the FTO program has made the process of qualifying officers’ produce the best competent officers. More so, I believe this training best prepares the “ooficer-safety” mindset needed to safely do the job. This program to me resembles very closely a civilian or military “On-the-Job Training” (OJT) program. I appreciate how these programs have checks & balance to protect all parties and is equally fair to all participants.

While reflecting on my time at the Chief Petty Officer’s Academy (CPOA), three elements of learning most impacted my persona and changed me as a leader.
