    Why I Joined the Army

    First off I joined the military to improve myself physically and mentally. Before I joined the military I used to wrestle and play football so my build was set on a weight of 250 I was pretty big then wrestling cut me down to like 215 but it wasn’t too long before I put the weight back on. Now what I meant by improving myself mentally is like I had the mindset of a punk ass I sold drugs barley got by was always getting fucked up on something and I didn’t really take anything serious and I missed my train for college so I was like man what is their for me to do so it was the military. I knew that it would be the best choice I could make for myself at that point and time in my life.…

    Carl Smith Diary

    I’m a male and my original name is Carl Smith my friends call me CS. My age is 23 years old. I’m from Virginia and during the last years I have been traveling around the 13 colonies to fight the British soldiers. My ancestors came to the “New World” because they wanted to be free and not wanting to anyone controlling them. I’m single, that is the reason why I joined the American Army over 6 Months ago is because I was unable to get a job that I wanted was unable to received my diploma, because I was unable to afford the stamp to be stamped on the certificate. Eighteenth century officers were hardly professionals in the modern sense of the word, for they might well first enter the service as mere boys through inheritance or purchase…

    Themes In The Other Wes Moore

    Wes found himself at Valley Forge after doing poorly in school and him hitting his sister pushed his mother over the edge to send him there. At first Wes did everything he could to escape from there. On his final attempt Sergeant Austin told Wes the direction the train station was in. Wes left only to discover it was a trap and, his chain of command took him in. They gave Wes a phone call home which was forbidden to new plebs. Once this was over Wes became invested in Valley Forge and near the end of his time there, he said “Three years ago I’d been one of the insubordinate kids first entering the gates of Valley Forge. In an ironic turn, I was now one of the ones in charge of them” (Moore 115). That commitment he invested payed off Wes was a ranked member of Valley Forge, served in the Marines, and went to school at John Hopkins University and Oxford University. Wes also invested commitment into the Job Corps with his friend Levy. Wes wanted to turn his life around and support his families with an honest living so he left the drug trade and joined the Job Corps with Levy. Wes finished top of his class in General Education Development training. Once finished with the GED training he chose carpentry as his vocational specialty. While working on a project for his carpenter training Wes said “The house was more than just a project to complete. It was a daily reminder of why he was there. These past months had been the most important and enjoyable in Wes’s life” (Moore 143). This goes to show that when anyone puts forward effort and commitment they can find happiness. Putting forth commitment is important and affects the outcome of that person's life, but it will not always result in a good outcome without…

My friend pulled me out of the queue so I went right up to the front. My friend introduced me to the sergeant-major who said ‘Are you willing to join?’ I said ‘Yes Sir’. He said ‘How old are you?’ I said ‘eighteen and one month.’ He said ‘Do you mean nineteen and one month?’ I thought for a moment and said ‘Yes Sir’. He said ‘Right – ho, sign, here.’ So that was my introduction to the…

    Personal Narrative: Kiowa

    Hello I am Kiowa’s lieutenant from the Alpha Company, I would like to give some background information about me to you guys. I am a sophomore in college and I had joined up for the Reserve Officer Training Corps because it was worth a few credits and few of my friends had joined, making me want to join. In all honesty I do not care about this war and I have no desire on becoming a team leader but I have ended up as the leader of Kiowa and his friends. I am insecure about the decisions I would make, leading me to make two of my soldier’s death. The first death would be a soldier named Ted Lavender. Instead of focusing on my men I focus on a girl who I deeply love and the fact that I care more about my love more than my men makes me and unworthy…

    Infantry Officer Characteristics

    Taekwondo in combination with attending two academically rigorous high schools, AAST and SCGSSM, have prepared me mentally and physically to take on the many challenges I have faced. Whether that has been preparing for a Linear Algebra, Micro-Molecular Biology, and Computer Science test the next day or creating a community engagement project to help reduce the crime and obesity rate in our local community - I got it done. My experience at the Governor’s School has taught me how to lead a student body of about 250 students in order to achieve a greener campus and a reformed living and learning environment. Though many of these experience hardly scratch the surface the responsibilities and skills of being an Infantry Officer, I believe they are the first steps to achieving this…

    Personal Narrative: My Army Career

    As soon as I walked in, he ripped my corporal rank of my chest, threw it on the ground, and proceeded to give me the worst ass chewing of my life. I felt less than a man by the time he was done with me. Afterwards, I moped around for a day or two. Dragging my feet and not really caring about anything anymore. I had lost my sniper team, my promotion, and my promotable status. All because I had to go out and think that I was too good to get help from anyone. All the good that I had done up to that point was completely forgotten. I was just another shit bag as far as my Chain of Command was concerned. But then I realized something. All they did was demote me. All they did was take my section. That was it. I wasn’t being kicked out of the army. I wasn’t getting busted down to private. In my mind that said one thing to me, I messed up but they need me. I’m a good soldier. I can come back from this. I spent the rest of the time in the field go out of my way to get things done. I volunteered for every detail no matter how bad it was. I made sure tasks I was given were done fast and to the best of my ability. I was determined to show my Company that I may have messed up but I was willing to do whatever it takes to get back where I was and that I wasn’t going to let a little trouble completely destroy me or keep me from having what I had worked so hard to…
