Essay on The United States Military
The United states Military is made up of Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard branches, however the Army is the only branch
that has ever issued a conscription or draft and has done so many times during its wars. The Draft was abolished in 1973 in favor of an all volunteer
army, but men of draft age still to this day have to register to the Selective Service System so a draft can be readily applied if needed. The draft
system recruits and places men into the military during a time of need for soldiers. During the Vietnam War and Cold War many people found the draft
controversial and unfair, and chose to protest or completely disobey the draft system. Although the Vietnam War draft was thought by many Americans
to be an...show more content...
In 1962 President John F. Kennedy re–instated the Presidents Committee on equal opportunity in the Armed Forces. This was known as the Gesell
Committee and was chaired by attorney Gerhard Gesell and was made to bring qualified African Americans into military service. At the time African
Americans made up 13% of the U.S population but only made up 9% of the Armed Forces. The committee aimed to make these numbers more equal
and bring more military interest and benefits to Blacks, however before the committee could act, the war in Vietnam solved the problems. The new
military expansions, discriminatory draft, and government programs brought increased African American participation and new forms of discrimination.
The new U.S. involvement in the Vietnam conflict overlapped the roaring Civil Rights movement bringing the misuse and mistreatment of African
Americans troops in the draft and in war itself. Many Civil Rights leaders not only saw discrimination in the war and war programs, but they also
used it as leverage for their movement. Dr. Martin Luther King described the Vietnam War as: "a white man's war, a black man's fight" and felt that
the number of black youths drafted was disproportionate to whites, and that African Americans faced a greater chance of being in combat or placed in
front lines.

Military Organizational Structure
The Toad Military Organizational Structure Organization involves a intentional formalized structure of roles. People working together towards a
common goal, but in specialized areas. The overall effectiveness of any particular association is directly proportional to the functioning of its members.
As a firm increases in size the participants lose sight of the concept of teamwork. To maintain the competitive edge a corporation must remainflexible.
To this end, varying styles of organizational structure have been implemented. Much of this framework is determined by the business type, goals to be
achieved, and even the sociological level of advancement. Our armed forces today reflect this philosophy....show more content...
These numbers alone are not sufficient for adequate results in reaction to many needed operations. To make up for the lack of qualified people, the
reserve forces are part of the new reactionary force. In any contingency worldwide these assets may be called up with short notice for global
engagement. National Guard personnel serve under the command authority of their respective state or territorial governors until mobilized for a federal
mission. This unique status does involve some creative managerial solutions. As a National Guard member I have noticed a uncommon organizational
structure utilized. In some ways my unit is organized as a network system. The network is comprised of formal and informal structures. Work has been
divided among varies specialized shops centering around maintaining expertise in that one area. Other aspects of the unit show a matrix structure to be
present. The fact I have more than one supervisor, as in a project and functional manager illustrate (Wheelen and Hunger 231). This is manifested by the
emphasis that work is important not the formal structure surrounding it (Nohria and Eccles 193). A result of multitasking requirements and a limited
amount of resources available to non–federal units. But overall, at least upon the surface a functional organizational structure is present. A
boundaryless organizational design is an interesting concept. However

Essay on Military Bearing
Importance of Military Bearing Military bearing is the root in which every soldier practices in order to carry out good discipline and ethics throughout
ones military career. Army regulations and soldiers on our own creed illustrate how a military service member should conduct themselves on a daily
basis, on and off duty. Loyalty, duty, respect, commitment, honor, punctuality, reliable, integrity, and personal courage are Army core values. Courage
is the ability to stand up for ones beliefs and ethics that the Army has been bestowed on them, despite the danger they may face on duty. Courage which
is the result of training and discipline is the kind upon which the control of men in battle is based. With such courage, the man when facing...show more

To be a dependable Soldier you must show your NCO's that you can arriving to work and appointments on time, meet deadlines, be in the right place
at the right time, and doing the right thing at the right time. Morning formation is the most important formation of the day. Dependability is a major
aspect of military bearing. Without dependability, one can neither perform properly in the workspace nor be depended upon by their coworkers, or
chain of command to carry out their military duties adequately. A military member is required to be punctual, and reliable. Lack of this in a service
member not only hinders the mission of the command but of the entire Army. Respect is the integrity that one takes upon oneself in order to carry out
the orders of the officers appointed over the service member. You must respect superior because they are your senior. Their actions determine the
capabilities of a unit and their overall accomplishment of an operation. A senior commander is not just any person given a rank and job. They go
through vigorous training to become the person they are. Through classes, training, and experiences they gain. Commitment is the dedication that is in
the performance of each and every soldier carrying out their orders. The military is a big commitment by both you and the military. As a soldier you
are committed to training requirements. The military offers a variety of advanced training programs. Some of these programs require

Essay Military Discipline
Military Discipline 1.General.The word discipline comes from the Latin word disciplД«na which means "to instruct". Discipline is a specific form of
instruction which develops self–control, character, and efficiency. Military discipline is that mental attitude and state of training which renders
obedience instinctive under all conditions. It is founded upon respect for, and loyalty to properly constituted authority. While it is developed
primarily by military drill, every feature of military life has its effects on military discipline. It is generally indicated in an individual or unit by
smartness of appearance and action; by cleanliness and neatness of dress, equipment, or quarters; by respect for seniors; and by prompt and cheerful

Maybe a whole squadron deserted its post. In this case, the court handed down the famous, the ghastly, sentence of decimation. The tribune called the
legion on parade and ordered to the front those who were guilty of desertion of their ranks. He reprimanded them, called them every name he could
think of. This was not just another sermon. Everyone knew how it was going to end. "Now I want each of you to choose a number," he told them.
And by lot one out of every ten men was chosen to pay the penalty. What penalty? On the tribune's order, the army fell on these men–their
comrades–and clubbed them to death, mercilessly. The rest of the guilty men were allowed to live, but possibly they thought death was preferable to
the humiliation they had to suffer then. They were told to quarter themselves outside the camp walls, where they were unprotected; and they were
given rations of barley–horse food–rather than wheat for sustenance. Their disgrace would live as long as they did. "But it isn't only your severe
punishments that produce right conduct," Polybius told the Romans. "That alone wouldn't make men brave. You encourage them to act heroically by
holding out all kinds of rewards and incentives." A soldier who

Essay on Suicide in the Military
Suicide in the Military
Candace L. Clark
Park University
October 7, 2009
Stressed by war and long overseas tours, U.S. soldiers killed themselves last year at the highest rate on record, the toll rising for a fourth straight year
and even surpassing the suicide rate among comparable civilians. Army leaders said they were doing everything they could think of to curb the deaths
and appealed for more mental health professionals to join and help out. Clearly, the military is going above and beyond to try and prevent further lives
from being taken. According to the sociologist Emile Durkheim, when a person has a very strong degree of social connectedness, he or she may
identify with its values or causes to such an extent that...show more content...
"We must eliminate the perceived stigma, shame and dishonor of asking for help," said Adm. Patrick Walsh, vice chief of naval operations. "This is
not simply an issue isolated to the medical community to recognize and resolve..." Such efforts should include keeping an eye on those closest to the
suicide victim, said Brian Altman, acting chief operating officer for Suicide Prevention Action Network USA, a Washington
–based public policy and
advocacy group. (Air Force Times). The Air Force lost 38 airmen to suicide in 2008, a rate of 11.5 suicides per 100,000 airmen. The average over the
past five years – since the start of Operation Iraqi Freedom – was 11 deaths per 100,000 annually. Of the airmen lost in 2008, 95 percent were men and
89 percent were enlisted. Young enlisted men with a rank of E1 to E4 and between the ages of 21 and 25 have the highest risk of suicide. Recently
released data indicates that active duty males carry, for the first time in known history, a suicide risk greater than that of comparable males in the
general population (Psychotherapy Brown Bag, 2009). This is particularly noteworthy considering that the military entrance process screens out serious
mental illness prior to entry onto active duty, and that the rate of suicide in military males has historically been significantly lower than comparable
civilian populations. To help

Discipline is a specific form of instruction which develops self–control, character, and efficiency.

It is generally indicated in an individual or unit by smartness of appearance and action; by cleanliness and neatness of dress, equipment, or quarters; by respect for seniors; and by prompt and cheerful ...show more content... Maybe a whole squadron deserted its post. In this case, the court handed down the famous, the ghastly, sentence of decimation. The tribune called the legion on parade and ordered to the front those who were guilty of desertion of their ranks. He reprimanded them, called them every name he could think of. This was not just another sermon. Everyone knew how it was going to end. "Now I want each of you to choose a number," he told them. And by lot one out of every ten men was chosen to pay the penalty. What penalty? On the tribune's order, the army fell on these men–their comrades–and clubbed them to death, mercilessly. The rest of the guilty men were allowed to live, but possibly they thought death was preferable to the humiliation they had to suffer then. They were told to quarter themselves outside the camp walls, where they were unprotected; and they were given rations of barley–horse food–rather than wheat for sustenance. Their disgrace would live as long as they did. "But it isn't only your severe punishments that produce right conduct," Polybius told the Romans. "That alone wouldn't make men brave. You encourage them to act heroically by holding out all kinds of rewards and incentives." A soldier who Get more content on HelpWriting.net

  • 6. Essay on Suicide in the Military Suicide in the Military Candace L. Clark Park University October 7, 2009 Stressed by war and long overseas tours, U.S. soldiers killed themselves last year at the highest rate on record, the toll rising for a fourth straight year and even surpassing the suicide rate among comparable civilians. Army leaders said they were doing everything they could think of to curb the deaths and appealed for more mental health professionals to join and help out. Clearly, the military is going above and beyond to try and prevent further lives from being taken. According to the sociologist Emile Durkheim, when a person has a very strong degree of social connectedness, he or she may identify with its values or causes to such an extent that...show more content... "We must eliminate the perceived stigma, shame and dishonor of asking for help," said Adm. Patrick Walsh, vice chief of naval operations. "This is not simply an issue isolated to the medical community to recognize and resolve..." Such efforts should include keeping an eye on those closest to the suicide victim, said Brian Altman, acting chief operating officer for Suicide Prevention Action Network USA, a Washington –based public policy and advocacy group. (Air Force Times). The Air Force lost 38 airmen to suicide in 2008, a rate of 11.5 suicides per 100,000 airmen. The average over the past five years – since the start of Operation Iraqi Freedom – was 11 deaths per 100,000 annually. Of the airmen lost in 2008, 95 percent were men and 89 percent were enlisted. Young enlisted men with a rank of E1 to E4 and between the ages of 21 and 25 have the highest risk of suicide. Recently released data indicates that active duty males carry, for the first time in known history, a suicide risk greater than that of comparable males in the general population (Psychotherapy Brown Bag, 2009). This is particularly noteworthy considering that the military entrance process screens out serious mental illness prior to entry onto active duty, and that the rate of suicide in military males has historically been significantly lower than comparable civilian populations.
