When every soldier takes his oath to the Constitution, we as soldiers accepted the responsibility to protect and serve the people. The United States entrusts soldiers with the power to use deadly force while respecting the sanctity of life at the same time. Most people do not comprehend how vital trust is; it is at the same level as faith. The absence of trust puts personal lives and jobs at risk. The Military places trust in the civilian population when they contract them to aid the Soldiers on their

long experience, the Army has found that some soldiers, if allowed to, will become careless and lax in the performance of minor barrack duties in their unit. They become accustomed to conditions in their immediate surroundings and overlook minor deficiencies. Should a soldier fall below the Army standard of performance, you can be assured that someone will notice those deficiencies immediately. Your superiors will order inspections to see that soldiers have all the equipment and clothing issued to

foreign men climbed the crumbling stone steps that approached the palace, a single strong soldier clad in thick armour considerably different from the group who had so uninvitedly approached the palace stepped forward and halted the group from proceeding. “State your business in Macedon!” the guard yelled menacingly. “We are simply here to negotiate with King Phillip” The leader of the group stepped forward. The soldier was clad in beautiful ceremonial armour, with the finest craftsmanship used to carve

The military system is, as one would expect, very pragmatic. Differences among soldiers and their abilities are viewed as strengths (or weaknesses) to be put to optimal use to get the job done. While certainly not impervious to racism and sexism, this very practical, almost scientific approach to managing human efforts supports a

Our country is slowly suffering at the expense of our military; our military is constantly funded with the resources to support and protect our country. The protection of our country is a priority, but the development and growth of our country is a priority as well. While our economy continues to deplete, our military resumes to spend billions every year. Increasing and spending high dollars on our armed forces is not needed in order to continue being the most preeminent military force in the world

profession as “higher-grade, non-manual occupation”. Many academics agree that a key component of a profession is specialized skill based on a body of knowledge.3 Initially, many will contend that the U.S. Army does not pass the first requirement. Soldiers work long and hard often completing tasks requiring physical strength and endurance. At first glance, the composition and mission of the military undermines the definition of a profession.

While many people think it is respectful to go up and thank a person for their service and duties in the military, most often they insult women by not acknowledging them as a soldier, because society still sees military personnel as a male based society. There is a fallacy to this stigma. Almost anyone can point out a man who is in the service, whether or not he is in uniform. Although it may not be easy to tell that I was a soldier in one point in time. The main

The Reality of Being in the Military. “The soldier is the Army. No Army is better than its soldiers. The soldier is also a citizen. In fact, the highest obligation and privilege of citizenship is that of bearing arms for one’s country” by George S. Patton Jr. There are some people who are brave enough to put their lives on the line for their family and also their country. What happens after the battle that needed to be fought is over though?

combat situations. Of course in combat situations, physical risks are always a factor, but there are also scars that cannot be seen by the eye. Physical injuries and life threatening situations often lead to the most frequent mental disorder amongst soldiers, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, also known as PTSD. PTSD is a disorder that “is connected to a traumatic event or series of events in a person 's life” (Current Health Teens). PTSD consists of painful recalls, avoidance, and paranoia. Veterans
