Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! My eyes pop wide open as I roll over to disable my alarm. I let out a big yawn. It’s 4:00 a.m. and I’m up and at it again. There is nothing like a sweet routine to start the day. Each day we may have something set to do, but sometimes we might start one way and finish it a different way. Some routines you can’t make shortcuts. No matter how hard you try, you are going to do it in the same order each day. For example, being in security forces in the United States Air Force and being a Non-Commissioned Officer, I have assumed the duties of a Flight Chief. My job is to report each morning on time before my troop members, ensure I collect all pass-ons from the previous shift, and make sure my flight is taken care of properly. My day to day activities may differ than many, but it is a job that I take pride in. “Good Morning!” I yell in my silly voice as soon as I hit the door at 5:00 a.m. to my squadron. One would say that I am full of energy and joy that early in the morning. I am prepared for what my day has in store for me. First thing I do as being Flight Chief is I always make sure I check with the Flight Chief on duty. I inquire with him to be …show more content…
I must also make everyone has the correct weapon number before posting out to each post. I have to make sure no one has appointments and confirm that all personnel are up to date on their training. Once I finish briefing my flight on the job duties and what is expected out of each person, we post out to start our day. As Flight chief it is my assignment to go back in the armory to start the process of making sure the previous night turns in all required equipment issued to them. I count every single weapon in the armory to guarantee that all the personnel have turned in their weapons. Once my count is done, the previous Flight Chief signs off and begins to gather things to head out of the
Scheduling the work day and being accountable for each one of your soldiers is one of the most important duties any leader in the Army has from a sergeant major all the way down to squad or team leader positions. With that being said, I cannot express enough that being at the right place at the right time is extremely essential to the defense of the entire United States of America and extremely essential to mission readiness and being able to complete the mission promptly. It 's because of this that being where I am instructed to be is so remarkably important. Without
In today's army, being on time can be a paramount activity. Consequences for not showing up on time can be disasterous. In a normal job, you get up, go to work, and come home, and that is the limit of the level of involvement. The army is not one of those jobs. In the army, we are constantly training our mind and bodies for a combat environment. In such an environment, the level of involvement must be much higher. It is understood that any mistake, however seemingly small can have extreme consequences. Among those consequences are situations which can lead to soldiers loosing their lives.
Being at the right place, time, and uniform displays discipline and supports the team. The consequences are more significant than the rewards. It can either make everything very simple, smooth, and efficient when you fulfill your duties. It will hinder, and remove other soldiers from a mission when one fails to uphold their responsibilities. The responsibility of attendance and proper attire is not difficult nor complicated. Communication is also a key part that supports the efficiency of the two. It is the responsibility of a soldier to ensure they are adhering to their leaders guidance.
Today weekly security checks, emails, and follow ups of any tasks are at the top of my list, there are policy memorandums I need to update as well. Lastly, finish writing awards for my subordinates from the last Inspector General inspection and continue to write a few Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for my Division. Since I am a school trained physical security officer I have the dubious pleasure of an additional duty, “The Division Physical Security Manager”. Nothing too strenuous just requires me to ensure my Division complies and exceeds or meets security requirements. It is now about 0915, I head off with my checklist to walk the perimeter of the building and outside compounds. I ensure compound is secure along with the equipment and vehicles. I finish off by ensuring all security points are completing the requirements on the daily check sheets. This takes me about 30 minutes, a few idle conversations with over subordinates in the other branches, nothing out of the
One of civil air patrol's motto's in the cadet program is "rise to the challenge". When I first joined shortly after my 12th birthday I had NO idea what that meant. BUT over time I've learned SO much about myself and my abilities despite my age. Like most cadets...I want to use MY TIME in civil air patrol to inspire and lead...BUT--most of all I want to offer my service....to my friends , my family and my community....

Looking at the finished product I turned in for Essay 1, I don’t think I deserved a 100%. As I read my essay I found nothing but mistakes and points left out. I then went back and read the first draft of that essay and man is there is difference. As I was reading my original essay I found out that I was inserting facts into sentences. That’s not bad but no the goal. The goal is to create a story about your hero’s journey and relate it to you. Mine was not that. Looking back on workshops and feedback I saw how much my paper had changed and how I raised my bar. I took sentences I had written and moved, created, and formed an essay that was different and better then the first draft; by creating a story. Now using all the knowledge, I have learned throughout the semester, I can use it revise my essay one

Scheduling the work day is one of the most important duties any leader in the Army or the Armed Forces for that matter, tackle each and every day. Being at the right place at the right time for any member of the Armed forces is extremely essential to the defense of the entire United States of America. It's because of this that being on time is remarkably important. Dependability, accountability, consistency and discipline are all crucially related to being on time. Furthermore, promptness also shows that the individual Soldier aims high and has their priorities straight. However, being where one
We must train our soldiers to take charge and to operate within the commander’s lawful order. The fifth principle of Mission Command is the use of mission orders. Commanders use mission orders to provide direction and guidance that focus the forces’ activities on the achievement of the main objective, set priorities, allocate resources, and influence the situation (States, 2012). For example, the commander order the unit inspection ready for Monday morning. As a leader, you would comply with the order but you may want more information on what exactly may get inspected.
6. You are overall responsible for the accountability of your soldiers. I believe that soldiers should work smart and hard during the normal duty day so that we can maximize time off and maintain normal work hours. However, mission will at times dictate weekends or late nights upon approval from the Battalion Commander. We can avoid self-inflicted problems by keeping track of appointments, breaks, and other situations that interfere with the mission. Remember soldiers take the initiative when the example is set. All appointments will be brought to my attention at least 2 days prior, emergencies are understood but they should be

Life of a soldier is run by strict set of rules that every soldier is compelled to follow right from the beginning of their army training. Some of the most important maxims of army life include, being punctual, always prepared and of course, being able to manage your time in an effective manner. These maxims are strictly followed in the army and if a soldier fails to meet anyone of these maxims then he or she can be punished according to the American military’s Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). However, these qualities are respected in a man regardless of their profession in life. Being punctual in your job, prepared for your meeting and managing your time can improve your relations with others and pave way for your success.
This paper with discuss the importance of doing the right thing, being in the right place, and most importantly, being there at the right time. Punctuality is one of the many ways to show professionalism. My goals in the army are high and in today’s army you have to be perceived as a high speed soldier in order to survive. Gone are the days of getting by with the bare minimum between deployments and field exercises. The past years of keeping branch numbers higher due to increased troop rotations are dwindling and the focus is on quality, not quantity. Perception is the key to success, and now that I have missed formation 2 times in as many months, I know that my reputation, especially among the
