The Importance Of Hardworking Men And Women In The Military

Being a professional soldier goes a long way. It means a person take pride in everything they do throughout life. It takes a lot of energy and time to earn this title so upholding its standard is a must. A soldier abides by all his and her codes and creeds. Also, the soldier must follow the army set values. There are seven values and all have a significant importance to our nation; loyalty, duty, respect, selfless-service, honor, integrity, and personal courage. These seven values are all a soldier needs to be professional in the army. Following each of them and executing them will build your character and define you as a soldier and a person.

Over the past few years, there has been huge discussions when the topic of equality for women who have joined the military is being brought up. Being that gender equality is a big thing in the military now, I decided to chose this topic and discuss how I feel about it. According to the United States constitution, all men are created equal and this does not exclude women. One of the main things I learned is that equality for women in the military is a major issue. There should be no gender inequality in the United States military period. Most jobs are now open to women that were once allowed for only a man to do but when it comes to something such as the military, it should have always been that way No one should be told they can’t do something when it requires fighting for your country. Even back when men were drafted in the military, women should have been able to get drafted as well. You would think the military would take any and everybody that is willing to fight for his or her country simply because it would make our job easier as a whole. Frequently, women are stereotyped as feeble and incapable of doing certain things. Nevertheless, this should not be applied in any kind of career, particularly in the military.

Men always believed that women cannot do everything like a guy or what men can do because they think women are not as strong as them, or they are too emotional. They want women to stay home cook, clean and take care of the kids. Until today there are some countries still believe that women have no rights to work or do anything. Now women are starting to fight for their rights and to show men that women can do anything men can. Strong women are empowered and role models to young women. One of the biggest inequalities women face is the different physical standards for being allowed into a Military Occupation Specialty (MOS). Now women are able to be part in the military maybe not up to a level where men can reach, but we have taken the first step of women being able to join the military and being able to fight for their country just as

The Values identified, manifested and espoused by the US Army are: Loyalty, Duty Respect, Service &Stewardship, Honor, Integrity and Personal Courage. These are defined by our US Army as:

a). I will discuss some of the reasons why less women join the Army.  Currently, females make up 15.7 percent of the U.S. Army. Approximately 16% of the officer corps and 7% of top generals and admirals in the Armed forces are women (McGregor). The statistics show women still make up a small percentage out of the total number of military officers in the Army. Few females thus join the Army. Many females decide to enter the Army mostly for personal reasons ranging from to avoid economic difficulties. Some join because the Army is the only viable job and that they have looked for jobs but have not found any. Others join out of a sense of honor, duty and even patriotism. They want to serve their country in the various capacities. While another group enters, the Army to receive education benefits, to gain job skills and to see more of the world among others (Jessica). Therefore, each person always has their reason. But the important thing is once they join the Army, they work towards protecting the country and its citizens. No one cares what their reasons were as long as they prove their

Women have been sexually harassed and assaulted in the work force for years, and for many years, the US Army has been dealing with this enormous and overwhelming issue, through the help of their agency known as the Equal Opportunity Program (EOP). In the US Army regulation 600-20, Army Chief of Staff, General Raymond T Odierno, States the purpose, “This regulation prescribes the policies and responsibilities of command, which include the Well-being of the force, military discipline, and conduct, the Army Equal Opportunity (EO) Program, and the Army Sexual Assault Victim Program.“ For a long time, the Army’s EOP Equal Opportunity

Duty is one of the values outlined the Army values. In my opinion it is one of the most important of all of them. It is very important but without the other values, Duty by itself cannot assist in accomplishing the mission. We still have the other values like leadership, respect, selfless service, honesty, integrity, and personal courage. These all set up the framework for us to be able to accomplish or duty as soldiers. All of them work hand in hand with each other. Duty is defined in Webster’s dictionary as, “obligatory tasks, conduct, service or functions that arise from ones position.” It is one of the primary values in the Army today. Duty is the reason while we get up every day and prepare to and defend the United States of America with

The idea of a requiered 1 year service to your country is amazing. It gives the opportunity to not only provide accistance to communitys nation wide but give real life experiance to the youth of this country. Proving millions of able bodied ammericans to help our county to maker our lives better. Wether it be clean up efforts after a storm wipes out a city, building new homes, feeding the homeless, or even joining the millitary. But this obligated service could do so much for people actually serving, millions of americans could find jobs in the same field as the work the had while serving the country. Wich brings for a great cycle of americans doing more for this great nation.

Many veterans have died serving this great nation they call their home; any son would be proud to call that man his father. They showed a great amount of patriotism and heroism to take a bullet for the red, white, and blue. If teens were forced to join a service program it would teach them to: never take their eyes off of the flag during the National Anthem, respect their president, and never lose faith in what they think is right. I once knew this old verteran, he lived down the street from me and sat on his porch every day, looking onto his yard, at the flowers. I visited him every Tuesday, after I was chasing my brother down the street and he tought me how to catch him even faster. We talked for 45 minutes each time, and the whole time he talked about his time in the service, his tactics, and his love for his country. He said that even now in his old age he would take twice as many bullets for this country then when he was enrolled. Teens can experience this love as well if they create this civil service

When it comes to combat assignments and the needs of the military, men take precedence over all other considerations, including career prospects of female service members. Female military members have been encouraged to pursue opportunities and career enhancement within the armed forces, which limit them only to the needs and good of the service due to women being not as “similarly situated” as their male counterparts when it comes to strength or aggressiveness, and are not able to handle combat situations.

Every day millions of men fight for a cause, to ensure our safety. Yet we pay little interest in them. That really hit me one day so this research was born. Learning about and researching the tools the men and women who protect us is fascinating and really cool!

Pro Female Military Personnel is the first on military readiness. Women, who chose to be a combat soldier on, it is impossible to carry out their duties by getting pregnant after a call-up Allows strength mixed gender makes a strong military. The second is effectiveness. Blanket restriction to limit the ability of women in the theater commander to select the best

In my opinion, lady is important for army. Female is gender of patience, childbirth is one that requires a lot of patient women was still able to do ,thus just the soldier I believe that women can do it. Responsibility is one that every soldier should have and women too. And it would be nice if army don’t have only man but have many beautiful lady .If you the one who wants to be in the army let’s protect our land .Don’t

In the essay, “What You Can Do For Your Country,” James Herbert Bushman speaks of instituting a mandatory military service requirement of three years, starting before the age of twenty-four. Bushman states his belief that as a requisite of citizenship, you must serve in a branch of the military. He claims that a necessary service will benefit more than only the military, but will benefit individual people as well by increasing the feeling of unity, the knowledge and skillset of the individual, and will grant equal pay and benefits for all in service. Bushman suggests that everyone who is unwilling to serve their country is no better than a freeloader or a beggar on a street corner, mooching off others’ efforts and earnings. Similarly, he repeats the old phrase ‘freedom is not free,’ and insinuates that everyone must work equally for their share of freedom.

I realized that although in theory women in the armed forces seemed like a good idea, there are many obstacles that make that reality very difficult to achieve. In writing this paper I am not proposing that either position is more valid or right than the other. I only hope to present each side in an equal light to help others to understand the issues involved.
