Personal Narrative: Navy Seal Member
The extinction of all humanity was near. With people dying and turning into these… things would change my view on the world and on life as I had knew it. As a Navy Seal Member I live basically everywhere. But my wife and my 3 kids live in New Jersey near the town of Toms River, we have lived here for over 20 years and this house is my home and will forever hold my secrets to it. My people that I work with are my other Seal Team, but after the Virus hit; my other team members had gone silent and never answered to me. It is easier for me to just claim that the rest of my team is dead, it then let's me just know some sort of answer. I knew of a Virus coming out, but nothing like what this had brought to the world and all humanity.
First of all let this sink in: monsters of incredible speed reaching up to 60 mph running and jumping the height of a giant, this was no ordinary thing to just happen. As a Navy Seal Member I know that if I did not leave and did not take my team with me and go into hiding, I would have been executed by the Government. I believe they have made this Virus as a test to see how humanity would do if given a challenge and knowing who would turn their back on family and friends. This all began in 2030 when people celebrated this year because of how the date looked, but when people went out in a

I did not make it home for 2 years, just like the journey to Texas, it's been 4 years and my wife must be worried sick, but not to give up Like Odysseus’ wife in the Odyssey. On the news the following year, I sat with my wife and kid and on the news they asked who had saved the United States of America and how did he or she do it? I never stood up and told anyone that I did it, what was the purpose of doing that? But next, I am planning to save the rest of the world, yet that's another story to

    Somewhere in the Middle East there is a mom fighting in a foreign war. The gunpowder smoke coagulating in her lungs, hearing the cries for help, and not knowing if she’ll ever see her 2 year old son again. Soldiers everywhere do this every day not knowing if they are going home ever to see their loved ones. They do this because they are selfless and are heroes. That’s why an American I believe in is made possible by the sacrifices of our military.…

    Despite non-selection, my pursuit of this prestigious and challenging position will not be deterred. My naval career, I have continually sought positions of greater responsibility and produced exceptional results in each of those positions. While I take great pride in being a Chief Petty Officer, I feel the experience I have acquired as a Chief will benefit any wardroom I am a member of. It is important to note that I did not submit an LDO-CWO package for FY-14 due to the time constraints I experienced while standing up Naval Beach Unit SEVEN with an under staffed office and operational commitment.…

    It would be an honor and a privilege to continue my service as a Surface Warfare Officer. I had the pleasure of being assigned to the USS Chung-Hoon during my senior Midshipman cruise. While on the Chung-Hoon, I was tasked with assuming the role of conning officer. I was held to the same expectation as my running mate; I was to have in-depth knowledge of the ship’s navigational capabilities, report for duty fully prepared to assume responsibilities, and, at all times, be diligent when working in unison with the different departments of the ship in order to assure safe navigation. Working with the officers and crew on the Chung-Hoon was the greatest lesson in leadership I experienced, and serves as the point in my life where I knew I was destined to be a warfighter. I know that as a Surface Warfare Officer,…

    I aspire to be a Marine Corps Officer. I want to protect and serve my country, but to lead others while doing it. To be called on to go to war and defend everything I've ever known to love and protect. Once called upon, my leadership skills and don't quit mentality are what will push not only myself but my fellow Marines confidently into battle. I'm a leader of all aspects and I feel I have what it takes to earn the title. To be apart of the few and the proud is why I aspire to be a Marine Corps Officer.…

    Have you ever been in the position of leaving your entire family behind? Well, I have an opportunity to make that choice this coming summer. I have a choice between staying here in the United States and playing baseball for an American Legion Team, The Outlaws, or leaving the US and playing for an Ambassador Baseball Team in the Dominican Republic. This decision is tough considering no one in my family can come along. Also in the sixteen years of my life, I have never been away from my family for an extended amount of time. Mainly, I feel there are three big factors in my decision. These factors are meeting new people with a different background, learning a new language and adapting to a new culture.…

    I was born in Iraq in a domestic violent environment. In my second grade in elementary, I and my sister moved to 7 different foster child housing. I had to move to 7 different elementary schools in one year. I was being sexually molested several times by these foster families and emotionally and physically as well. My parents finally were able to get back together and keep us somehow stable till the middle school. My father was kidnapped after 2003 war in Iraq and we had to sell all we have to pay for his ransom and release him free. We run away to Syria after we got my father back and we lived there as refugees till we came to the U.S. in 2011. Growing up in Syria as a gay man was as hard as growing up in the jungle with predators. I was being beat up and raped several times by Syrian regime militias.…

    On the 30th day of September, in the year 1992, I was surgically removed from my mother and declared female. My mother gave me the first name Samantha, after her favorite vindictive soap opera character, Samantha Brady, from The Days of our Lives. Little did I know at that moment I was going to be sentenced to live with seven other siblings before I even turned 20. The worst part is estrogen flows through five of them. My mother is a Forensic Scientist and my father is a Physician’s Assistant in the U.S. Army. They make me very proud to be a part of a family that serves to keep this country free. I have lived in Germany, Texas, Missouri,…

    My next steps after high school are pretty simple. I plan to work for a while to keep helping my parents with the house bills. After a while I plan on joining the Marine Corps and study for my career as a car mechanic. The plans I have will benefit me and my parents in a lot of ways. I will technically be working and studying for my career at the same time, so I won't have to be worrying about making enough money to pay for my education and have to stay up late at nights to catch up on my work. I will be able to have my brain and body fully concentrated on my goal. I am really aiming to become a very successful guy in life.…

    The route I have taken after high school has definitely been the path less traveled. I enlisted into the United States Marine Corps after graduating high school to serve the country that welcomed me in with open arms as a refugee, and blessed me so much with freedoms and opportunities that I would have never obtained in Tibet or India. During my years in the Corps, I received the opportunity to travel the World, lead Marines, and make a difference. The Marine Corps has definitely been a steppingstone because it has rewarded me with a broader perspective of the World, military discipline and bearing, and many other intangible traits I plan to instill throughout my life. Also during my service, I gained very unconventional experiences that were…

Her grandmother is in her 60’s, so there wasn’t much texting going between us. I’d been trying to catch up with her all day to interview her, but I guess she had a very busy weekend. I finally arrived to the house just ready to get the interview over with.…

    When I first stepped into Anderson High School as a freshman, I was exceedingly confident in myself. I played sports, had gotten good grades, and planned to have an amazing high school career. Freshman and sophomore year were a breeze. If I am being straightforward, I did not focus much on my schoolwork. I did what was required of me and got good grades, but I did not go above and beyond. I had always been told by upperclassman, “It only gets harder from here. Enjoy it while you can.” Now I realize what that means.…
