Personal Narrative: Hi Operations Team

Although it may seem counter-intuitive, one of the proudest moments of my life was when I tried out for an officer position on my dance team and didn’t earn the title that will haunt me for the rest of my life: “Senior Lieutenant.” I fixed my world around that title, and it would determine the level of my leadership position on the team. The day after the results were announced should’ve been the most dreadful day of my life; having to get up and look in the mirror at the failure staring back at me, then having to drag myself to school and master the art of not being seen to avoid the shame. However, this day was something to the contrary. I knew I was internally devastated for letting the incredible opportunity slip through my fingers, but

Hi Delta Group! A time where I went wrong with someone’s personality would be with a really good friend of mine. When I first met her, I thought she seemed slightly mean, guarded, and standoffish. Which is what the text describes as the 3rd property of moderator variable, as the “trait that is judged”. As I did I get to know her, and started hanging out with her more, I quickly realized she was the complete opposite. She just doesn’t easily open up to people, and she’s not the type of person to just instantly come off as friendly. Which of course is definitely understandable. I also realized getting to know her that many people that she would trust easily, and call her friend had broken her trust in one way or the other, which is why she came

Throughout the course of our lives, we must collaborate with people who may have completely different upbringings and have vastly different belief systems than what we may hold ourselves. One scenario in my life in which I had to collaborate with someone different than me was when I had to work with an overly aggressive football player who was a year younger. He started on the freshmen team but soon became the starting quarterback of the varsity team when he was a sophomore. I was on the JV team and was the backup quarterback both my junior and sophomore year. We came from different social groups, and I worried that we would not get along on or off of the field.

Today we began the day with a field manager discussion on conversation rates and door completion. We trained on pacing during GOTV and effective re-knocking to increase our number of conversations. As the rest of the team joined in for training on the overall mindset canvassing before and even potentially during the debate along with voter fatigue at doors. We also briefed drivers on avoiding the highways due to the amount of traffic and closed exits. We then transitioned into a discussion on messaging and how to incorporate different words to attract voters into the group as ‘we’ and ‘us’. We broke into crews for rap practice and headed to lunch, then turf. During mid check-ins, no issues were recorded, but the team was finding a lot of not homes. Canvassers arrived and started to debrief

After a challenging move from De Pere to Sturgeon Bay between my freshman and sophomore year, I can officially say that I have adapted well to my new community. In the beginning of sophomore year, one of my goals was to become as involved in my new high school as I was my old high school. I have accomplished that by becoming a part of the soccer team and joining a variety of clubs that all mean a lot to me. For example, A-Team works with other students that have learning disabilities to make social interaction a little more comfortable. In my opinion, creating a better learning environment for them not only benefits all of the students in that environment but it feels really rewarding.

On 01-25-17 I responded to the above address. Upon arrival I observed an officer talking to Ciro Castro who was speaking through a brocken window in the door and he refused to come outside. I also saw Christine Young sitting on the ground in the neighbors yard talking to Ofc Matthews.

This was my first deployment to Iraq and second overall deployment with Bravo Company, 1-501 Parachute Infantry Regiment. I was only in one direct fire engagement during my first deployment. So when we were notified of your company being selected to change areas of operation to one of the hottest spots in all of Iraq I was not sure what to expect. I had only been a Squad Leader for 6 months and I was not exactly sure how my young squad would handle the realities of war. We were stationed in Alaska and the army chose us to attend a Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC) rotation in Fort Polk, Louisiana that prepared us for the adverse conditions of Iraq. During JRTC we conducted multiple raids while being paired with a team from 20th Special

I would like to start off by apologizing for my repeated absences. Lately I have been busy with school, work, and college planning. I realize this is no excuse as we all have made sacrifices to be fully prepared for whatever this trip may endure. This trip, along with the benefit of our team, is my top priority. I by no means take the importance of teamwork lightly; as Carla says, the trip starts long before we step foot in the airport. Again I'm very sorry and this is my commitment that I will a better teammate and be more

The war grounds are so treacherous, dead bodies are everywhere. We are still one of the three Central Powers. We’ve shot down many trade ships and submarines. Our new technology is very innovative. The poison gas is great but backfires when there are winds bringing back the gases to our trenches. These are extremely deadly and kills almost anyone instantaneously. It burns the respiratory systems of soldiers that don’t wear gas masks, which is a very common circumstance.

No one is more professional than I. I am a noncommissioned officer, a leader of Soldiers. As a noncommissioned officer, I realize that I am a member of a time honored corps, which is known as “The Backbone of the Army”. For over 200 years the Army has served the people of the United States with citizens who have volunteered to serve. Throughout the years one thing has remained the same, the Army has grown, changed and adapted to meet the needs as an ever-changing world.

I was never really good in school. I graduated high school with a 2.15 GPA, and I blame that on my struggle to focus for long periods of time. Furthermore, I struggled with math and science in high school. I failed geometry twice and chemistry once. To overcome these educational barriers, I employ two things I learned in the military: get the task done and get it done right the first time, and hold yourself accountable for your actions.

What game should I get, Daniel thought while in the gaming store. He stored enough money in his piggy bank to get the newest release of Black Ops or Guitar Hero Live. The only thing he did to choose the games was by his usual way of choosing, a coin toss.

Cleaning up centers is another important procedure we have. Three minutes before cleanup happens, the student that is the timer that day rings a drum and then turns over a three-minute sand timer. That child also chooses what the cleanup song

After being apart of the task force team in the spring 2016 semester. I began to gain a strong interest in working in the COMPASS office. During my time as a intern I was given the opportunity to develop many different skills that not only will allow me to be a positive asset to the COMPASS Ambassador team, but it will allow me to take this opportunity as a learning experience to improve my professional networking, as well as my leadership

“What do you think about sending in peacekeeper team two, they have proven themselves capable in every simulation we have provided sir.” I looked over the profiles on my holoscreen and responded “ We could do that but I think we need a more subtle plan as team two is very…loud and rash in operations such as this. If you could come up with several more options within the next rotation, I would appreciate deeply” “Of course, is there anything else Mr. Adams” “No that will be all.” My assistant bowed in response then swiftly walked out. Now that I was alone as I could be I needed to plan what need to happen if I planned to move up from just district head. If I brought in Alice my chances of success
