Crossing the line ceremony is another big tradition that Navy ships do when they cross the equator. This tradition goes all the way back to the wooden ships to see if the sailors could deal with being on the sea for their first time.

This two-day event consists of many activities like having the guys dress like women to drinking disgusting things. For guys in the marines that are infantrymen must shave their heads if they had never been deployed.

Emotions can be shown, and mostly our clothing shows that we want to be seen as flashy, dark, or even hopeful. Although when uniforms come into the equation what does it give us? Nothing. No showing into ones emotion, no show of how that person is feeling. Although yes their face can show a few words is it really enough? No it’s not, Uniforms just show you are just another bland person with minimal to nothing in feeling, and yes we can add accessories but as well, those are limited to bland and nothing that shows real emotion. Someone that wears a uniform can fake a smile, can fake a laugh since they know that with what
We may not consciously think about the off-grid places where our military must serve. Imagine areas without provisions for doing laundry. Perhaps there is no electricity. Whatever the reason… some service men and women must wear the same uniforms for days.
Tradition is a custom, which changes through time and situation. Overlooking tradition is not good for our society. In contrast, sticking to old tradition sometimes brings darkness for our society. In the story “Lottery” the villagers blindly stick to their old tradition. On the contrary, in the “Dead men’s path,” Michael Obi seems to overlook the tradition, so it is clear that both stories theme is tradition.
Every year, my family makes an effort to travel across the country from our hometown in Tennessee to southern California to visit family. Our family has celebrated many traditions over the years, but this is one that means the most to me. Also, some of the most memorable moments of my life happened during this tradition. It all started when I was around 4 years old. My family decided to move away from the big city in Southern California to a more country setting more suitable for raising children. Ever since, we have made the trip back and forth, only missing one year since. This unique tradition has helped me to develop to appreciate my family and bring us closer together.

In the past 2 years, the United States Navy has implemented several changes to their uniform components. The uniform changes which have drawn the liveliest debates are those that deal directly with our female uniform components. These changes have long term implications for the direction of our Naval Service, our traditions and our heritage. Senior leadership, to include The Secretary of the Navy, expressed that it was important to change the style of our uniforms in order to fully integrate our female shipmates into the Navy. It will help level the field and to garner respect for our female Sailors. However, the issue rests deeper than outward look and design of a uniform and why Navy uniforms should not be used as a means to achieve gender equality.
The relationship between Sacred Tradition and Sacred Scripture in the Roman Catholic teachings is that they are bound closely together, and communicate one with the other as found in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Their goal is to come together as one, and have the same initiate which is to move toward the same goal. The Catechism of the Catholic Church also states that, “each of them makes present and fruitful in the Church the mystery of Christ, who promises to remain with his own “always to the close of the age”. Sacred scripture is defined as the speck of God as it is written down under the breath of the Holy Spirit. Tradition is what you preserve, and share with the next

Many people would say serving in the United States Armed Forces is a very commendable thing to do. But a part of being a solider is wearing a uniform. How many times have you looked at a soldier and said, “Why do they have to wear those uniforms” or “Why aren’t they allowed to show their individuality through their clothes”? Robert Baden-Powell once said, “The uniform makes for brotherhood, since when universally adopted it covers up all differences of class and country.” So why can’t we look at school uniforms in a way that brings students together? Although the average student’s uniform may not be the ideal fashion statement, it eliminates many unnecessary distractions or risk that could arise at school.
This uniform may also be worn to civilian functions such as weddings, religious services, and the like.
Five days after graduating highschool, I left my hometown for the United States Navy. The dress code was simple: hair needed to be cut a certain way, creases in my uniforms were to be exact, mandatory clean shaven face and my medals/ribbons needed to be in their proper place and perfectly aligned to standards. Once I retired, reality set it when I assumed the role as a Human Resourcess Manager or Director. Skirt lengths, open/closed toed shoes, cleavage (both front and rear), piercings and tattoos are just a few of the items I was responsible for in regulating at the corporate office. This paper will discuss many of the common dress code issues, legal responsibilities and a bit of personal humor and insight into the ordeal of establishing a dress code policy that will regulate your appearance. In addition, this paper will add some of my trials and pitfalls when establishign policy that might help some of my colleagues who will become Human Resources professionals learn to be realistic and quite possibly compassionate when it comes to preparing a dress code policy.
