I would like to be in the Marine Corps JROTC program because it will be able to help me learn the basic elements and the need for national security and my personal obligation as an American. The Marine Corps JROTC program will also help me strengthen initiative and individuality to establish natural gifts, to teach me self-control, progress personal character, responsibility and aspect of integrity, loyalty, and dedication. This program sparked my interest as I know that it is highly beneficial and can teach or promote positive, productive behaviors. With this program, I learned that the Marine Corps JROTC cadets arrive everyday, have higher participation in class, are role models for avoiding substance abuse, have higher self-respect, develop

There are many different cultures or social groups that have a language barrier whether that is because of religion, race, or social differences. These language barriers eventually will have to be overcome so that we can all communicate with each other. Out of these social groups, comes the greatest fighting force in the World, The Marine Corps. Marines have a very unique language dialog that has been preserved for hundreds of years Unfortunately, there comes a point in time when a Marine must transition out of the Marine Corps into the “Civilian World” (as we call it). Transitioning is a very exciting time for Marines but it also is very difficult time due to the strong language community that we belong to.

America never truly recovered from the shock that followed the collapse of the Twin Towers in lower Manhattan, the strike on the Pentagon, the final crashed airline in Shanksville, PA.

The purpose of this brief is to inform Marines on the Marine corps order for uniforms, appearance, and wear. Upon completion of this brief I am confident that you will have the knowledge and skills to properly wear the approved Marine Corps MCCUU uniform or “cammies” as commonly known.

There is the Infantry that has been nicknamed the Grunts of the Marine Corps’. The Corps’ contains jobs from mechanics to recruiters, from Combat to desk top jobs, but unlike some Branches of the Military all of the Marines go through the same boot camps.

There are many career choices you can choose from in the armed forces. Like becoming a nuclear engineer, a pilot, or even going into a special ops program in a certain branch of the armed forces. Well there's one special force that is separated from the rest and that's the navy seals. In this research paper you will learn the good and bad aspects in joining the navy seals whether it's for the training, pay/benefits, or for your education.

"The only easy day... was yesterday..." The Navy Seals was founded in May of 1961 during the Vietnam war. Navy seals have many teams across the entire globe, and the most popular is seal Team Six (Jason Graham and Stephen Baron). There are some occupational things you learn becoming a seal and being one. These Occupational Skills include: Climb, Conceal, Demolitions, Hide, First Aid, Handgun, Martial Arts, Navigate, Other Language, Parachuting, Photography, Pilot: Boat, Rifle, Sneak, Spot Hidden, Submachine Gun (Jason Graham and Stephen Baron). Some Survival things SEALs pick up include: Desert, Woodland, Cold Weather, Swim, Tactics, Throw, Track (Jason Graham and Stephen Baron). Plus one of the following as personal specialty: Electronics, Machine Gun, Medicine, Heavy Weapons (Jason Graham and Stephen Baron). Seals is a acronym for Sea, Air, and Land (United States Navy Seals). They also partner with the U.S Government agencies such as the CIA and the NSA (United States Navy Seals). The US Navy Seals are mostly used during the Vietnam war for demolishing and disarming bombs so that water rafts were able to get through (United States Navy Seals). Navy Seals go through the most gruesome training exercises, go in the most daring and classified missions, and use the most up to date weaponry.

From Sea, Air, and Land, the U.S. Navy Seal Teams are the most feared and respected commando forces in the U.S military if not the world. The Seal Teams are the most elite and highly trained forces on the face of the earth. President John F. Kennedy formed the teams in 1962 as a seagoing counterpart to the U.S Army Special Forces.

Like the French, the U.S. Army’s military organizational structure consists of armies, corps, divisions, brigades, and battalions. The only exception is the regional commands that it uses. Each command level organization consists of a robust staff that assists commanders with developing plans and executing orders. This organizational structure provides an efficient method of commanding and controlling from the lowest to the highest level of commands.

The United States Coast Guard (USCG) has been protecting the national sovereignty of the United States for 211 years.

The United States Army Quartermaster Corps is the oldest Logistics branch of the United States dating back to 1775. The other Logistics branches being the Transportation Corps, and Ordinance Corps. In 1775 the Second Continental Congress passed a resolution providing a Quartermaster General of the grand army and a deputy under him. At this time and until 1912 this organization was referred to as the Quartermaster Departments. In 1912 Congress consolidated Subsistence, Pay, and Quartermaster departments to create the Quartermaster corps. Quartermaster units and soldiers have served in every US Military operation from the Revolutionary War to current operations in the Middle East. The role of the Quartermaster Corps is to provide logistical support to the ground forces. They are in charge of general supply, Mortuary Affairs, food service, petroleum and water, aerial delivery, shower, laundry and material distribution and management. Quartermasters are a huge part of the success of the army and always have been. They are tasked with providing all of these essentials to the combat lines and without this support, the combat arms would not be able to strive on. The quartermaster soldier may not be the one out there fighting and defeating the enemy, but his role is essential to aiding and destroying the enemy. The war is won or lost before the fighting even starts, by the Quartermaster.

As I was reading your post, I started having flash backs to my husband's stories when he was in the military. I can remember him complaining how no one knows what is going on, because everyone thought the outcome was something different. Perception is a major factor in communication, and when you have different members of the military branch that have different backgrounds, everyone's perception tends to be different. From my experience i can say enlisted folks differently had a negative perception towards the officers, and depending on their personalities and experiences the communication barrier becomes even harder to break. I also find it very difficult for a group of people to form a common goal when the different members of the team have
