When I am older I want to join the Airforce because when I was four my oldest brother left to go to the Airforce. I have always been very active and that is an important skill in the Airforce. I’ve always wanted to work in an airplane. I don’t want to be a pilot but I want to be a load master. A load master is someone who has to load all the supplies and calculate the mass and weight of each occupant and supply box to make sure the plane can carry it. The necessary training is a very rigorous training schedule to continue being in shape and ready. The education varies but for every cadet (resident of the Academy) there is a four year education scale. Any occupant that joins can grow in ranks. If someone goes through the academy, they will join the force as an Airman or officer. If someone goes through boot camp, they’ll be an Airman basic. It will be hard work and college won’t be easy; however, it is …show more content…
There are many strong characteristics that the academy is looking for. A few are, patience and determination because it will be hard and long. Also, it is hard work so you will have to break yourself in order to be able to be strong. Having common sense is very important even if it seems not important. My brother went through boot camp and not the academy however he has lived very many different places. He has advised me in living in Guam or Texas because he loved both place more than the other five places. I would like either Guam or Seattle because my brother Cory has also enjoyed living there. These places are just places I would enjoy living. I will get to suggest the place I would want to live; however I will be moved according to where they believe is best for me. To help me with everything and earning higher recognition would be helping at soup kitchens. Also tutoring younger kids could help. Lastly, volunteering at hospitals can really boost

I had to pass jump school to attend Special Forces school where I had a slot waiting for me. I wanted to be a Special Forces ambassador in uniform so I could represent my country abroad. Special Forces trains a host nations military by teaching it essential skills. I wanted as many overseas assignments as I could get. My respect for Special Forces and my desire to be part of this elite group gave me my motivation to continue and never give up. I wanted to be in one of America’s best units.
The soldiers are first trained in basic level where they are motivated to destroy their individualities and build comradeship amongst the men. The bond is so important among men because when they are in battle, they have to fight for eachother. In the beginning of the basic training, the recruits are all worn out. The training is being done in an island where they are conscripted to do what is being told by the drill instructor without question. Neither they can leave, nor they can communicate much with the outside world. Basic training is basically about giving mental and physical pressure to create motivation. In the first three days, the recruits are being hustled, yelled, and shouted. They learn the basic orders of drill that enable them to work in large groups. They have to surrender their clothes, cut their hair, cut their physical evidence of individuality citizen identity. The recruits sleep aside a series of hasty rituals and given no time to reflect or to look back and think about their families, friends. So that the recruits donot backout, the frantic bustle of forming is set. The creation of an environment that romanticizes the milita...
For many officer cadets at RMC the First Year Orientation Programme (FYOP), is often the greatest challenge they will face both in their lives at the college and in their military careers in general. For First Years, the challenge comes from having to function in a stressful environment marked by daily inspections, demanding physical activity, frequent punishments, and limited time to connect with loved ones through either phone calls or email. Meanwhile, for the third and fourth years in charge of them, the challenge comes from making sure that their assigned ‘flights’, which range in size from eighteen to twenty individuals, successfully learn, often through the use of strict discipline, the skills they will need to effectively integrate

Confidence, In yourself and to lead those that would follow. (this is what I believe Honor is) Honor, ... ... middle of paper ... ... tiring out of there. I plan on getting officer training at some point.
My initial reason to enter the Air Force was a great way to pay for college which turned into a call of duty and a service commitment which has actively allowed me to contribute to the Air Force mission. Thus far I have led a joint force search and rescue effort and a multinational exercise to preserve freedom. As an F-15E instructor WSO and combat mission ready WSO I actively contribute to ensure our freedoms are preserved and the attacks of September 11, 2001 will never happen again.
I Corporal Ramirez is striving to become an Officer in the United States Marine Corps. There are many different reasons why I am eager to become an OFficer. At an early age I knew I wanted to be just like my dad, who would always go on deployments, taking care of his sailors, and serving his country proud. Although he was never home I knew he had to be out there making sure that the ship is up and running and that his ship mates were always on deck. As the backbone of the United States Marine Corps I know the importance of being a vital link for my Commander, and all Officers, and Enlisted Marines, in addition I will never forget who I am, and the traditions I must uphold. Comming from a line of faimly mbembers who have served proudly served before me in other branches is one of the main reasons why I wanted to join the Military, I wanted to lead by example, and I know the importance of the livelihood of all the Marines and Sailors under your command.
Many high school students often wonder what they are going to do after graduation. Some might go to college, others will go straight into the workforce while a small amount will join The United States Military Forces. These forces include the Air Force, Army, Navy and of course the Marine Corps. The Marines are a tough branch to get into seeing that there are many mental and physical requirements. Being in the Marine Corps does not only mean being in combat, but becoming a better person. Being a part of the Marine Corps comes with a lot of benefits, but to acquire those benefits, there requires a lot of open minded learning and preparation to get there.
I want to be in ASB because I think that this is a great opportunity for me to practice my leadership skills to help all students at Medea Creek. I enjoy helping people and working with others and I know that ASB is a wonderful chance for me to do so. I know that our school should have voices that help others who cannot speak up for themselves and I will help them raise their voices in school. I want to be part of ASB because I think that this can help me mature, and also help achieve my goal for life, which is becoming the president of the U.S. I believe that ASB is a unique opportunity to help me become a game-changer in our school and community. ASB students make changes in their community every day. I think that that is an amazing thing, getting to impact your community every single day.
There are no limits in the Army, none on what you can learn and on what you can achieve. The Army strengthens you, and your future, with expert training in one of over 150 different jobs for soldiers on Active Duty. There is no specific job a soldier must have; it all depends on what he/she wants. But if the choice is made wisely, it could affect a big part of your future job and plan. (“Overview” np)
What if I could go back in time and sit down with my teenage self? The conversation would seem longwinded, and I would probably want to tell me ‘okay’, just so I would shut up. If I could shake that spaced out kid, with his head in the clouds and yell into his face, ‘Listen, it doesn’t have to be difficult! Things can be so much easier if you pay a little more attention.’ Looking back as I went through high school my priorities changed, from music and friends to wanting to join the military. The decision to join the military changed my life and molded the person that I am today. I had it all figured out back then. My plan, my approach, and my dreams were in front of me.
I have been blessed to have led a highly fulfilling career over the past 22 years. The Air Force’s standards of conduct and performance have helped me mature into an adult while creating lasting memories along the way. I have had the opportunity to make significant contributions to my country that offer a sense of pride and personal achievement. My current duties allow me to directly contribute to the Air Force and Joint arena on an almost daily basis. Joining the Air Force helped me to realize I had undertaken a task bigger than myself.
Since the time I was young, my grandfather instilled in me a deep respect and love for my country. I learned that we had freedom because many people would put on a uniform and risk their lives for our country to defend it. My grandfather told me about several people in my family who died while in service to this country and from a young age I wanted to be like them. I knew it was important to fight for our freedom and for our wonderful country like the many people in my family before me. My grandfather, who was in the invasion force in Japan during world war two is a big part of why I want to be an Army officer.
An officer's ability to lead his or her soldiers is contingent on the officer's knowledge of his soldier's skills. The US Army Officer is a professional, providing expertise, leadership, and an example for his soldiers to follow. Every soldier is a subject matter expert, trained in a specific competency. An officer, that soldier's leader, needs to be able to employ that soldier effectively. That means understanding a soldier's skills. An Officer needs to further have the ability to train that soldier outside of the US Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) schools. This means a successful officer must become proficient in, if not an expert of, his soldier's competencies. For an average soldier, this would mean several MOS style training schools. In intelligence, a soldier can be anything from a Prophet...
