     The history of the United States military is a very prestige, brave, heroic, and memorable one at that. Starting on September 3, 1793 the United States was officially it’s own nation and it’s own military. At that time many other countries didn’t believe that we would succeed but, now we are one of the strongest, freest, and most prestige country to possible ever be developed.

Both the Army and the Marine Corps offers similar career opportunities in areas such as infantry, armor, aviation, administration. However, due to the Marine Corps’ attachment with the Navy, it does not directly employ health-care professionals such as nurses, doctors, dentists or psychologists like the Army. Instead, it receives these services from commissioned Navy medical officers.

Against all odds, The United States’s meager volunteer army defeated the British, who were said to have been the greatest army at that time. The war began in 1775 when the Americans demanded independence from Britain. America united with the French and Spanish and the British were on their own for the most part. At the time, America wasn’t an official country which makes it even more astonishing that they beat such an enormous empire. Although the American army was at a massive disadvantage, they did have a few elements on their side. The Americans were more motivated than the british because they were fighting for their freedom. They also had better leaders that were encouraging and innovative.

The United States of America has not always been the world superpower that it is today. The same goes for its Navy. In the first several years of existence, the United States Navy was not a formidable fighting force. The young nation was hesitant to invest in a navy for many reasons, one of them being to prevent provoking the world powers of the time, France and Britain. On top of that, navies were very expensive to build and required a significant amount of resources to maintain, which the U.S. did not have at the time. To say that the United States Navy was ill prepared for war would be a dramatic understatement. The U.S. had a total of fifteen ships in its entire naval fleet compared to the might of the Royal Navy which possessed over six hundred warships. Even with the odds stacked against the U.S., President Madison declared war on 18 JUN 1812. The lack of size and power of the navy at the time would make it extremely difficult to satisfy the needs of the newly founded nation.

The U.S. Navy and the U.S. Naval Academy are organizations that are superior diversity champions. The enlisted force of the Navy is more than 40 percent diverse. Diversity is imperative for and to the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Naval Academy because America is a diverse country. As discussed in class when talking about diversity within organizations, it is imperative to obtain and maintain a diverse workforce when serving a diverse clientele. The U.S. Navy and the U.S. Naval Academy must be diverse to understand and serve the beautiful and diverse United States. As the case mentioned, 70 percent of new workers entering the workforce in their recruitable demographic are women and minorities; therefore, the Navy has to pay attention to diversity. In addition, the Navy has evolved its strategic imperative over time. A key focus for this evolved strategic imperative is not only winning wars, but even more, preventing wars. It is best for America to win any war she is in; however, it is in the best interest of this country to prevent war at all cost. Because of this, the Navy is dedicated to engaging in humanitarian assistance, disaster relief, and building strong maritime partners around the world. Having a diverse naval force is beneficial to successfully engaging in these initiatives. Therefore, diversity is essential.

Some may look at my history or my former occupation and think my opinion is skewed. Honestly, I can admit that my political views are bias to a certain level. But, my opinion on torture is not swayed due to the fact that one time in my life I served in the United States Army. My view on torture or inflicting agony on an individual for information rest on me being protective of my children. I know, that many will read what I just wrote and think I am a terribly father and the “ramifications of war” attribute to my support of torture for information. But I ensure you the reader that I am normal 26 year old male, father of two, who would do nothing more than ensure the safety and protection of my family.

Be all you can be. An Army of one. These two phrases are recognized by almost everyone. The United States Army is one of three military departments (Army, Navy and Air Force) that make up the Department of Defense. The organization holds a strong set of core values. Each soldier is also required to instill that same set of values and beliefs. The Seven Core Army Values define what being a soldier is about.
