The 19th Special Forces Group : Bg Clayton's Air Force

During arduous combat operations coinciding with a high OPTEMPO unit cohesion may flux toward a detriment of mission success. This report will focus on the 56TH Armored Brigade Combat Team (ABCT) in order to address the critical leadership problem. In addition, focus will center on relevant facts and assumptions that led to the critical leadership problem and rectify the issues. Furthermore, a new ABCT vision will be published in order to restructure the organizational culture toward a unified purpose and an increase in esprit de corps.

they attempted to break contact. An AC-130 was able to provide covering fire and enabled the

There was a pause, then the soldiers began firing. Without any orders, they fired into the crowd and instantly killed 3

The (NWR) number six crew waited above the road and watched the fire grow and get closer. As the crew watched the fire two civilians arrived in a truck that were camping above were the crew had stopped. The crew never told the civilians that they were there because it was going to be a deployment spot or a safety zone.

Special Forces soldiers work in foreign lands with situations which are not always completely clear from its beginning. The Special Operation Imperatives serve as the base for success by providing the framework to develop and assist the host nation in achieving their desired goals. Through this essay I will use the novel “The Ugly American” (William J. Lederer & Eugene Burdick) to provide context to the benefits of applying such imperatives and the consequences of improper application. I will bring to light the actions of the characters and depict the reasons why the application of the imperative made the character succeed or fail in his desired goal.

The mission was soon to begin. Fletcher and Marcel, along with the rest of their Unit were to breach through the main entrance, while the other Units would go through the sides of the warehouse and through the back. All leaders of each Unit were given some sort of intercom so that they could communicate. Fletcher had heard one of the commanders announce that they were ready and another voice responded, “Begin.” The leader put his intercom away and pulled a breaching device from its cartridge. Without being said, they all backed up as he attached the device to the doorway. Without hesitation, he detonated the charge. BOOM! Debris and dust flew everywhere. And just like that, they were

Imagine being locked up because of race and then given a chance to prove loyalty to the country. While, Pearl Harbor was a devastating event for America, this caused Japanese descendants in America to go through even tougher times. The 442nd Regimental Combat Team consisted of Japanese-Americans who were in concentration camps during this time. These men were then sent into war to help America. Enemy forces were located in Germany and Japan and in these lands were trapped U.S. combat teams in need. The 442nd Regimental Combat Team helped the United States win World War Two and proved their loyalty.

On December 1, 1941, President Franklin Roosevelt signed an executive order that started the Civil Air Patrol. No one, not even its creator, Gill Robb Wilson, foresaw the importance that Cap would play in protecting the waters along the coast from the dreaded German U-boats attacking the shipping lanes. Sixty years later the CAP is still going strong. Performing its missions of aerospace education, cadet programs and search and rescue, CAP is preparing today’s youth to become successful leaders. This was not all that CAP has done. In the beginning of its creation, CAP played a major role in the defense of the U.S. during World War II. CAP played a vital role in the coastal defense of

Although the 82nd Airborne was organized in 1917 during America's involvement in the First World War it was during the Second World War that the unit gained its reputation. Its distinctive name was garnered from the fact that members of the division originated from communities throughout the entire country so the term "All American" was utilized and explains the presence of the distinctive "AA" on the division's shoulder patch. The division saw limited involvement during the First World War as it saw service in only three battles but one of the most famous characters emerging from the War, Sergeant York, was a member of the 82nd Airborne. Sergeant York was honored with the Medal of Honor for his efforts in single-handily killing a number of Germans and capturing over a hundred of other German soldiers during the Meuse-Argonne offensive (Pushies).

The 28th ID and the elements of the 11 ACR that were with them were aware of the bombing sortie and were able to dig in before it. They had protection in the event an errant bomb hit them. Teams of the 19th Special Forces Group continued operations, ignoring their own safety, to maneuver around the Army of the Potomac and collect intelligence on new formations. They noticed that two Brigades left the AO heading east and west respectively, with two Brigades leading the spear head in the center. From a safe distance they were able to see the carnage that rained down on the two Battalions that were in the lead. The 19th SF teams reported back exact locations through their chain-of-command, which pushed it back to the Pentagon and the

The plane comes to an abrupt landing on the runway. 00E jumps out and surveys the situation. The monster has destroyed much of San Francisco and is now destroying Freedom Tower. He jumps into the waiting helicopter and he is quickly briefed. In the briefing, he learns the US Army has been trying to take down the monster with conventional weaponry. Then he jumps out of the helicopter and lands safely on the ground near

Quietly, they walked towards the sound. They came up on an old hollowed out tree, peeked in the hole and there was Brodie. Curled up and crying.

Nattier ordered them to bail out. So he flew the plane down to a lower altitude out of the rest of the formation so they could bail out. The copilot, navigator, and a gunman refused to bail out because of shock and went down with the plane. Once he bailed out he landed in a field by a German school. A few German students and teachers came running over to him and they took several things out of his parachute bag. Then after the Germans took all of the stuff they wanted they bandaged up him and the other crew members. Then loaded them all up onto a truck and drove us to a prison to be held there until they were interrogated. When Lt. Nattier was interrogated they already knew everything about him he was asked about his parents and if his sister had recovered from the flu. What they knew about these pilots lives was astonishing to me.

No one knew what had happened. Some people thought that a plane had crashed, and others blamed aliens. The army came, barricaded the area for a few days, but then denied a crash ever taking place at all. A soldier using the name James Prescott told a newspaper that he and 4 other soldiers found 2 boxes containing a dead alien. Rumors spread quickly, but nobody knew for sure.
