Military Situation Analysis

In the United States Army we are taught to live by the Seven Army Values. They are broken down to us in the acronym ‘LDRSHIP’ which is short for Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity and Personal Courage. We are all taught these 7 Army values repeatedly from day one in the United States Army. First we memorize these values. Then we are trained to live by them. All of these 7 values coincide with each other, and play an important roll in our Army lives. These 7 Army Values also play well into life outside the Army in our personal life. People sometimes do not realize the importance these values have on the way we are viewed by the people who look up to the men and woman who are privileged enough to represent the

Second, the Army is governed by two related ethos. On the first day of initial training Soldiers are taught the importance of the seven Army values and begin to memorize the Soldier’s Creed. Like doctors and lawyers, “the military is an expert group, charged by its client to conduct work governed by a professional ethic” according to Lieutenant General Robert Caslen. A recent study commissioned by the Army found that 93% of Soldiers share their personal with the one set by the Army. Again, according to Caslen “the Army Values have sustained our institution through some of our most difficult years and will continue to be the foundation of our profession.”

After the events of September 11, 2001, my dad was recalled to the military to serve twelve months in Djibouti, Africa. Upon his return, he made the choice to return to the Army, and we were sent to Colorado. In the years that followed, my family was

These seven Army values are taught to Soldiers in basic training and are reinforced through out a Soldier’s military career. They are expected to be followed in a peace time,

The culture and climate of a well-disciplined unit should be apparent by its strong core values and attributes displayed by its unit members. Recruiting and processing qualified applicants with good moral values and strong character traits is where it starts. In addition, Basic Combat Training (BCT) further strengthens a Soldier’s moral fiber, focuses on building strong leadership skills, and instills the core values of the Army. The Army needs “standard bearers,” not Soldiers and Leaders who choose the easy wrong over the hard right. Providing proper training and honest feedback will create competence in our military ethics. We need Soldiers and Leaders of strong character that will teach, coach, and mentor the next generation of leaders. A positive command climate and demanding culture is the substance of developing unit cohesion and esprit de corps. Army ethics will continue to struggle if it does not have leaders at every level to enforce the importance of its core values and principles. A strong culture and positive climate play a vital role in shaping our force for the future.

first thing I am going to talk about in this essay is the seven army values and the importance of them to the army. In the US army we are taught to live by the Seven Army Values. They are broken down to us in the acronym “LDRSHIP”. Loyalty “Bear true faith and allegiance to the U.S. constitution, the Army, and other soldiers. ” Duty “ Fulfill you obligations. ” Respect “ Treat people as they should be treated . ” Selfless Service “ Put the welfare of the nation, the Army and your subordinates above your own. ” Honor “ Live up to the army values.” Integrity “Do what is right legally and morally. ” and Personal Courage “ Face fear, danger or adversity (physical or moral). ” We are all drilled on these seven army values from day one of basic

The United States Armed Forces are only for the rough and tough. I learned about the military through commercials on television, my family members who veterans, and recruiters walking are thought my neighborhood and at school when I was a child. “Join the most powerful military in the world,” said a military poster I had seen walking home from work one day and the “Be All That You Can Be” Army commercials played while I was watching television. I believed that if I was rough and tough enough to join the military then I could do anything I put my mind to. It became a challenge and I decided to take on the challenge.

As military service has transformed from a force that was conscripted or drafted to the all-volunteer force of today, one can trace this back through family lineage. In keeping an all-volunteer force, you can see that it usually goes back through many generations, in military families. 50 years ago, as a result of the draft, around 2.7 million people entered into military service from almost every segment of our society, which accounted for one-half of 1 percent of the population, compared to surveys of today, which show that nearly 80 percent of those who

The military has always been a part of my family’s life. My grandfather was in the army along with his son and my grandmothers other son’s. I also have many cousins who are still in and one who worked at the Pentagon. My uncles use to always tell us stories about their military service and how much they learned. Most of my cousins that joined only joined because of these stories and the lavish lifestyles they have seen my uncles live. Unlike them, I wasn’t drawn in by the stories my uncles told me, or the war letters from my deceased grandfather. For some reason it was my mothers dream for me; probably because its always something she wanted to do but was afraid, a fantasy I wasn’t quite ready to live in for her or them.

After the psychological trauma and threats of punishment experienced in basic training, soldiers will usually automatically apply what they have been indoctrinated to do – or else.

Understanding PMESII-PT will aide me as a 420A in a deployed environment. This will allow to assess some things that I would normally not assess. I will discuss two of the operational variables: military and physical environment and how they affect military operations in a deployed environment.

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

I think when we first start training when we first get hired is all about fitting into the organizations culture and services. The first day I worked at Massage Green Spa, I had to read a binder full of information about the organization’s culture and doing things their way. Then after that I had to watch a video where they use symbols and stories to get me to connect emotional to what Massage Green Spa wanted to teach me and act towards clients. I use to think the way I behaved or did things in the military would also help me in my personal life as well when all it did was push people away. I guess you can say that I had a ‘me verse them’ attitude when I was younger. Establishing a balance is key just like you mentioned. I think we all know
