Military Deployment Analysis

“Yesterday, Dec. 7, 1941 - a date which will live in infamy - the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.” -Franklin D. Roosevelt.

The Bonus Expeditionary Force consisted of jobless veterans who were being led by Walter W. Walters a previous cannery worker, they started coming in the capital in the month of May, tensions were at an all-time high (Pbs.org). In addition to this, they referred to themselves as the Bonus Expeditionary Forces, and requested early payment of a bonus which was promised to them by Congress for their exemplary services in World War I (Pbs.org). Douglas MacArthur, Army Chief of Staff was prompted to believe that the march was a communist ploy to undercut the United States government, and that “the movement was in fact far more extensive than that of an effort to fortify federal treasury funds which were almost exhausted (Pbs.org)”. However, this was not the situation. It was reported to MacArthur from his own General Staff intelligence division that only three of said twenty-six leaders were indeed anti-Communist. This made headlines with many noting that this was a bunch of

My father has been in the military for the past 30 years, this means that my family and I are used to moving. Usually the moving process goes very fast: my dad will receive a posting message and within the next four months we’ll be in a new home. It can be intense, as my house would be up for sale, my parents would leave to go buy a new house, and I’d have to break the news to my friends that I’d be gone within a few months, but I’ve always enjoyed moving despite the intensity and the stress it might bring. Due to the fact that the longest I’ve lived in one place was for four years, I began to expect a new posting after just a few years in a new place. While it goes fast and can be stressful, I appreciate the moving process because it’s interesting to see my life packed up and moved somewhere, whether it’s across the ocean or across Canada.

Is it important to know the past? Why or why not? Well first of all what is the past? That’s a question asked by all… the past is something that has not only already happened, but created what we have now. Without many of things that happened in the past where would we be right now? Would we ever know? Well, obviously not because the past did happen and the present is now occurring. Our past shouldn’t be kept a secret. What we are living in right now will soon be known as another name such as the “past”. The past is reality. Even if it may seem a little scary it did happen and there's no fact that it didn’t. So may I say that even if you don’t think there's anyone to help you understand the past because it was a long time ago.. trust me

Some geographic COCOMs and Combatant Commanders significantly influence U.S. foreign policy in their region which offsets the effectiveness of other instruments of power and sets the perception of military first.

On 4 July 2015, you were not at work even though you were scheduled to work. There may have been a break down in the roster because of last minute changes but this is not acceptable for several reasons.

There were several conditions that lead up to the end of the cold war, not the least of which was the Soviet Union’s respect for the economic impact of Strategic Defense System that President Reagan was proposing at the time (Shultz, 2013). When Mikhail Gorbachev took over as Soviet Premier, he and President Reagan were able to come to agreements to reduce nuclear weapons and for the Soviet to pull out of Afghanistan. This lead to the eventual dissolution of the Soviet Union, which was a good thing. However, like everything in life, there are alway unintended consequences. In this case, the void that the pullout of the Soviet Union left in the Middle East became a breeding ground for Hezbollah and for what we now know of as ISIS.

Heuristics are mental shortcuts we use when making judgments or decisions (Aronson, Wilson, & Akert, 2013). These shortcuts may help in recalling situations or events that may have happened, causing us to store or maintain the cause or event deep into our memories. We often do this unconsciously, or without much effort. When a decision or judgment is made rather quickly, it may be derived from using availability heuristics. This type of heuristics is quickly retrievable from our memory. Our brain relays to us a pile of quick memory joggers we can pick or choose from, in which we feel are relatable to a current situation or event.

Moving from place to place every two years as a military dependant is undeniably hard. It seems as though whenever you get settled enough to be comfortable in a school that you have to prepare restart the process of trying to be brave enough to talk to new people, make new friends, and get involved at another new school. Throughout my experiences I have pushed myself to go outside my comfort zone at each new school, at one I ran for student council and won, at two others I was involved in their leadership programs, and at my current school I decided to join the dance team. An experience I had never had. I took a huge risk and put myself out there even though I had never danced before and didn’t know the first thing about it, however I was

Scalable – the ability to adjust something in size. Although weight is a big part of what slows soldiers down and makes them uncomfortable, size is another issue that the United States military has had to deal with. If soldiers don't have proper fitting equipment, serious injuries could occur. The United States military has began to improve their gear so that soldiers will be comfortable on the battlefield no matter their size or gender. The Mission Scalable is the design of the soldier protection system which is the standard suit which has pads and armor on the joints and extremities. The differences is, this suit allows soldiers to adjust weight and protection levels as needed. This suit allows the soldiers to have at the minimum, just concealed

I believe the primary purpose of having military bases in different countries such as colombia or afghanistan is so that the United States will be able to respond to events that could arise but would take longer to respond to from the United States itself.I think they mainly focus on a more quick response time but they do also contribute to peace and stability by being that close to a certain place. I think the bases are less important in the modern day since we have missiles capable of traveling miles and the ability to communicate around the world in an instant. I think the amount of bases should be cut down but be more equipped with more people and be evenly spread out between countries to raise potential response times to certain events.

Good evening Matthew, I hope you are enjoying your overseas duty assignment. You are not alone when it comes to dreading this class. I have been putting it off for a while now. I like that you chose the word childhood and I agree that our childhood, whether good or bad is the bedrock of who we are. I believe the hardest test a young adult has is moving past their childhood and deciding to not let their childhood limit their future. I look forward to working with you in the

The 'Joint and Coalition Operational Analysis (JCOA) case study is regarding the U.S-Philippines partnership in counter-terrorism (CT) operations that took place from 2002-2011. The CT operation was titled as 'Operation ENDURING FREEDOM-PHILIPPINES (OEF-P) and was conducted by the partnership of Philippine security forces and US Joint Special Operations Task Force-Philippines (JSOTF-P). The CT cooperation took place at three levels, tactical, operational, and strategic. The role of JSOTF was that of 'advise and assist' whereby ground operations were conducted by the Philippine forces. The US cooperation for CT in Philippines was guided by the Joint Publication (JP) 5-0, Joint Operation Planning, and a policy and action framework to act as a binding framework for conducting joint, interagency, and multinational CT operations using full range of military operational capacity. The OEF-P was also conducted by incorporating JP 5-0 principles and guidelines of engagement. The OEF-P took place in Southern Philippines. Following is an assessment how the US forces used termination, military end state, and objectives of operational design (Joint Pub 5-0, page III-18) to develop and refine their operational approach.
