Reflection: My Experience As A Military Assistant
Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to meet with me a few weeks ago. I really enjoyed our conversation, and it was a great opportunity for me to learn more about military medicine and USUHS.

I heard back from Georgetown after our meeting, and they were not able to grant another year of deferral, so I am considering joining the Army MAVNI (Military Accession Vital for National Interest) between my first and second year if the program remains open.

Thank you again for sharing your experience and insight with me. I really appreciate your time and help.

I hope you have happy holidays and a joyful New Year.

Sincerely,
JinMin Han.

    The US Army values soldiers that are accountable for their actions. Being accountable means being dependable; arriving to work and appointments on time, meeting deadlines, being in the right place at the right time and doing the right thing at the right time. Morning formation is the most imprtant formation of the day. It is made to get accountability of everyone and to put out any information that needs to be addressed. Without having accountability there is no way of knowing where soldiers are or whats going on.

    Buster Keaton’s role in The General perfectly epitomizes the utilization of comedy during the Silent Film Era as the medium through which a deeper story is conveyed. The Silent Era was generally characterized by two things: the extreme dedication of its actors and a tendency towards slapstick comedy. While the first can be attributed to the passion of these early filmmakers, the latter is perhaps more of a function of necessity. With limited use of title slides and no use of sound, actors like Buster Keaton had to find a way to tell stories without words. And so they turned to a language that can be spoken by any person, understood in any country, and appreciated across the world: humor.…

    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.

    Yes I do believe that the military will be excepting of a culture changes. The culture of the military is forever going to be changing. It may not be as great as desegregation, woman’s rights, or as great as the LGBT movement. The world is changing and if you do not change with it you fall behind. I think the military is more open to change now than it was back in war ll. I do believe the military we able to handle the culture changes that it counters in the present and future. Because of what we've learned with in our own country. This will benefit us when learning other cultures around the world. We have never fight a war in our own country. So we should be open to new cultures if we are going to be in other countries. So times I think that the United States thinks it’s the only country in the world and that other people do not matter. Life outside the states if very different and uncommon to us. If we do not know their culture then how are we to understand who they are, what they believe in and why are they are fighting. This will help the goal of the military if the soldiers are well educated in the culture that they are fighting against. In many of the videos we watched in class a number of times the soldiers were talking to the local people. This is where I think educating the soldiers really…
