Candidate Hecht delivered an incomplete brief. SNC was nervous and unsure of the information he was relaying to his team. This uncertainty was displayed through him constantly repeating himself stumbling or stuttering and briefing the order out of sequence. SNC’s orientation simply stated that his team was located on MCB Quantico, Brown Field. SCN briefed his friendly situation in conjunction with the beginning of his mission statement. SNC failed to brief the entirety of the coordinating instructions. His brief as a whole lacked the structure of a five paragraph order. SNC lacked confidence and due to the lack of information, his order did not completely make sense. Prior to execution, SNC did not establish a plan which made it difficult for…
Candidate Dorney displayed a great amount of confidence throughout the entire evolution. He started off by getting accountability of his fire team. He spoke clearly and made constant eye contact with each member of his fire team as he briefed the five paragraph order. SNC requested a situation report from each fire team member. He stressed that time was of the essence. SNC gave the fire team specifics on how they would execute. He kept constant communication with the security and made sure there was no site of the enemy. SNC moved quickly and made his fire team move quickly as well. At the point of friction, there was no hesitation to devise a new plan and SNC ensured each member was aware of the change in plans. The fire team did…
During training day 19, James was called over individually by a Cpl Wilson, a Marine from his expected battalion and told where his orders were for. One week later, Tommy and 25 other Marines were told where their orders were. There was a significant difference in leadership at this point in the story. James was talked to individually and told a brief history of his new battalion, some of the training he would be receiving in the upcoming months, and information about his final weeks in the School of Infantry. Tommy's situation was much different. He was told about his unit en masse and with no specific information as to where it was, what type of training they would be doing, or any information about graduation…
Another example of this media bias would be when Herman Cain was a republican candidate and news stations harassed him with allegations about him having mistresses and was unfaithful to his wife which later caused him to withdraw from the race but on the other hand no news station harassed Hilary about Bills long list of sexual harassment allegations or the fact she had lied about being under sniper…
“Alright boys, at 11:00 p.m. sharp we bust out it will be a difficult escape and not all of us might make it out alive.” I informed my crew, it will be difficult but I think we can do it. Private Hotdogger comes up behind me and whispers, “ Get ready General, the workers all leaving and locking up.” I sprint as fast as I can all the way down the counter, I grab medical stuff gear and a mic for everyone to communicate. After two minutes everyone’s ready for the run, I see the fear on my troops faces. I grab my mic and say to everyone “ Get ready for the run there will be traps of all kinds, they everything to stop a sausage from escaping. The cabinet door opens up, everyone…
Candidate Flack displayed solid command presence as he appeared comfortable by giving a clear and concise brief that included detailed orders to his team. His tone was filled with enthusiasm and excitement by speaking loud throughout the exection, in combination with constant use of hand/arm signals. Candidate Flack had his team moving at a good pace during movement toward the objective; however, he was not keeping a good eye on the location of his team members. Candidate Flack heard the sound of the enemy coming from the right of his team and changed their formation while changing their direction of movement toward the sound of the enemy. Upon receiving fire from the enemy, the ADDRAC was announced and he directed buddy rushing. Initially…

Just as Eagle Troop thought they were going to get chance to face the enemy they received orders to change the orientation of their defense to the east and Captain McMaster thought his Troop would be cheated out of an opportunity to meet the enemy on the flat open dessert land that was perfect for a mechanized battle, a Tankers dream. The orders were relayed to the Platoon Leaders and the Troops and reassured that they have to remain prepared to be able to defend or attack at a moment’s notice.…
Vice-Presidential candidates Mike Pence(R) and Tim Kaine(D) took to the stage Tuesday to debate which of their running mates could best lead the United States through a turbulent period in its history.…
The best way to characterize the campaign efforts of Roy Moore is modest. In a typically red state made up of more than 52% right leaning residents and following the election of Donald Trump many thought this election would just continue Republican dominance in the state (“Party Affiliation”). With just under $1.8 million dollars raised Roy Moore enjoyed a modern day front porch campaign remaining mostly active on social media (Strauss and Bland). Roy Moore didn’t actively travel or push for tough grass root efforts but rather, remained active on twitter with over 609 tweets, attempting to mobilize young Republican Alabama voters (“United States”). Through his social media platform he emphasized his past history as a judge, his conservative…

The next morning, I was to report to Logistics and Strategy. People were all over this place. Seaman lined the walls with headsets on and screens in front of them. They used their fingers to tap the screens and then shout out coordinates. I walked down the row of officers scrutinizing interactive pixel maps. They had the ability to visualize the ships and planes in real time with holographic symbols. I passed them and walked up some steps to a clear glass room. TOO THIN, Fernando, Chad, Mallory, and five Admirals were there. One Admiral for each permanent coalition country. There were also a line of officers outside the room, waiting for orders.…
Alamo his response was, “As the FTO you are to follow the policy which mirrors the law. Should he have told the recruit to skip George, ethically the FTO was wrong, regardless of the FTO experience. His function is to teach the recruit the correct procedure when working as a law enforcement officer” (D JWilliams, personal communication January 13, 2016). Therefore, I feel that he is not a good example of a leader, simply based upon this occurrence, and it leaves open question to how many other recruits he has said this to, which comes into question his…
When evaluating the weakness competencies from the reasoning aptitude evaluation I found that I had six areas of improvement. These areas consisted of leading, presenting, writing, delivering results, adhering to values and followings instructions. These results were quite surprising and I realized that some improvements need to be made. In order for one to be a successful manager, leader, and team member, improvement always needs to be made. The area that needed the most improvement was following guidelines and following instruction. These both are basic communication skills that need improving. There are some…
