Essay on Great Military Leader and The Military Budgeting
Mankind must put an end to war, before war puts an end to mankind, John F. Kennedy. The U.S. military budget is a great cause for concern both for
the federal deficit and the matter of safety. While there are many changes that need to be made to our federal budget one of the most evident issues is
the amount of money the United States spends on the military. The United States needs to cut its military spending to aid in reducing the deficit,
increase American safety, bring the global view of America back into a positive light, and help foreign relations with other governments.
The United States had to borrower over 514 billion dollars last year in order to cover our national budget, and of the 3.881 trillion dollar budget 640

Global military leaders have displayed that their military spending is often tit for tat which will only employ an increase of military spending instead
of engaging foreign policy. China has gathered that they in no way can compete with our naval forces so instead of creating a naval arms race they
have invested heavily into anti–ship ballistic missile programs (U.S. Naval Institute, 2009), which in turn the United States has stated in light of
Chinas increased defense towards our military they have proposed a $110 billion dollar program to modernize our fleet. So in hindsight, America
wanted a better naval force to protect its allies overseas and made 11 air craft carriers, China saw this as a threat so they made anti–ballistic missiles to
destroy them, so the U.S. military saw this as a threat and invested funds into an anti–ballistic missile defense for the ships, and the cycle continues. At
no point does anyone truly become safer, in fact, globally everyone is simply discovering more ways to become devastatingly more destructive and
violent and with it the spending and budgets importance is disregarded as the deficit looms.
Alternatively, there are historically recent examples of military spending cuts and why they would effectively increase American safety

Persuasive Speech On Transgenders In The Military
Transgender Military Ban
Discrimination is still a major issue all over the world in today's society. For instance, In the United States, transgenders have now been banned to serve
in the military. These people deserve the potential and capability to defend their nation. Many close–minded people come to the conclusion that
transgenders are weak and it is affecting our military when in reality they are doing the complete opposite. They deserve to be treated equally and be
given the same rights because they are also a human and deserve the same respect. The overall best decision is to lift the ban and apologize for taking
away their rights or else there will never be equality in our society.
Just a year ago, transgenders were given the right to freely serve in the military, but now Donald Trump took away their ability to do so. On July 26,
Trump tweeted, " Our military must be forced on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and
disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you." (Trump) He has called these certain soldiers a burden because the costs are going
to medical purposes instead of strengthening the military. Although this may be true to an extent, it is not a very reasonable reason to take away their
right to serve. A study has shown that the treatments would cost, "... we expect only a 0.13–percent ($8.4 million out of $6.2 billion) increase in health

Propagande, Russia, and USA
I know you heard about this. It was propaganda at its best and Russia just posts what the U.S. is whining about. Russia has learned that western
media makes itself look like an ignorant buffoon, because the western press has a very low level of intelligence to deal with in its stories. Americans
as a rule are not that well educated and reading is a byproduct of that situation. So post the dribble from the west and the west looks less and less

The Pentagon said a Russian fighter jet made multiple close–range passes near an American navy destroyer. The warship was deployed in the Black Sea
as Russian military monitored NATO's systematic build–up of naval forces in the region. "This provocative and unprofessional Russian action is

a Pentagon spokesman. "I have difficulty believing that two Russian pilots on their own would choose to take such an action."
First lets understand where this happened. This did not happen in the Gulf of Mexico or somewhere near the U.S., it happened near Russia and Ukraine

Essay Military Bearing
In the United States NAVY, military bearing is the root in which every service member practices in order to carry out good discipline and ethics
throughout ones military careers. The Eleven General Orders of a Sentry, The Articles of the UCMJ, as well as our own Sailors Creed illustrates
how a military service member should conduct himself or herself on a daily basis, on and off duty. Dependability is a major aspect of military

military bearing. Physical readiness standards or better known as PRT's are held every six months for NAVY personnel. The PRT is a test in which

Napoleon Bonaparte Essay
Napoleon Bonaparte is regarded as one of the greatest military and political masterminds in the history of man. Napoleon's brilliance led him through
extremely successful Italian campaigns, major battles against the Third Coalition and helped him rule politically to keep the gains of the revolution.
Napoleon, through his military conquests and political alterations, made France a great nation.
Napoleon Bonaparte was born on August 15th, 1769 in small town of Ajaccio on the island of Corsica. He had sevensiblings, and his father was a
lawyer whose family stemmed from the Florentine nobility. In 1779, Napoleon went to school at Brienne in France. There he took a great interest in

Then in October of 1795, the government was threatened with a revolt in Paris. Paul Barras, commander of the home forces, appointed Napoleon to
defend the capital. With amazing swiftness Napoleon massed men and artillery at important places in Paris so that the attack of 30,000 national
guards was driven back by his men. Napoleon had saved the national convention from the Parisian mob, and one year later at the age of 26 he was
rewarded with the position of commander in chief of the interior French army in Italy.
Once Napoleon took over it did not take long for him to turn the group of ill–disciplined soldiers into an effective fighting force. In a series of stunning
victories, Napoleon defeated four Austrian generals in succession; every army he fought was larger than the last. This forced Austria and its allies to
make peace with France. Throughout his Italian campaigns, Napoleon won the confidence of his men through his energy, charm, and ability to
comprehend complex issues quickly and make decisions rapidly. These qualities, combined with his keen intelligence, ease with words, and supreme
confidence in himself, enabled him throughout the rest of his life to influence nations, and win their firm support.
In July 1798, the Austrians sent three powerful waves of men through the Alps. In only six days, Napoleon and his men attacked each wave of
soldiers, and defeated them all separately. When the third was defeated in a two–day battle at Rivoli on January 14th

The Republic was in danger. France was at war with Austria, Prussia, England, Holland, and Spain. There was a revolt in western France, and there
was a great need for good officers. At the age of 25, only one year after becoming captain, Napoleon performed so well that he was promoted to the
rank of Brigadier General. He was given command of the artillery at Toulon, and in December of that same year, the French forced the English out of
Toulon. " The commander in chief wrote: "I have no words to describe the merit of Bonaparte. Much science, as much intelligence, and too much
bravery." (Britannica Junior Encyclopedia, #11 N–O 7 ). In August of 1794 Napoleon was arrested because he had been a supporter of Maximilien
Rosbespierre. He was accused of treason. Although he was released his career seemed to be over. Then in October of 1795, the government was
threatened with a revolt in Paris. Paul Barras, commander of the home forces, appointed Napoleon to defend the capital. "With amazing swiftness
Napoleon massed men and artillery at important places in Paris the attack of 30,000 national guards was driven back by his men. About 200 men

Within Canada, the military attempts to cover a wide range of capabilities and maximize their utility. Instead, Canada could contract specialized
companies as the need arises. For example, should Canada decided to launch a peacekeeping mission the government could contract a private
policing corporation who specializes in addressing crime. Furthermore, in theory a free market economy would force competition between security
companies which would encourage the most efficient and effective service to provide the services required by Canada. Force agility is improved
with private companies in mobility, scalability, and adaptability. Mobility is a matter of how forces can be transported and equipment is deployed.
For private military companies, the ability to contract logistical services to private airlines or shipping companies can far exceed the capabilities of
the Canadian military without the cost of maintenance or the challenges of procurement policies. The ability to scale up and demobilize forces
quickly is important from a policy perspective and was demonstrated by private military companies in the Iraq conflict. Companies are able to scale

The flying boat, in 1919, was the first aircraft to fly the Atlantic Ocean. This aircraft was Naval Aviation's outstanding technical product of World War

The Reign Of Peter The Great
The reign of Peter the Great has been a source of considerable historical debate for many contemporary and traditional historians. Especially, the
transformation he made to Russian culture, politics and economic, which arguably changed the foundations of society. Thus, the interval of some three
hundred years has allowed us to access Peter the Great 's reforms more accurately but we must consider that Russia during the late 17th century existed
in different ethical and social circumstances to our own contemporary society as to make it almost a foreign civilisation. Judgements about Peter the
Great using today 's political and moral perspectives may have to be tempered unless we are accused of historical and cultural relativism. Therefore, we
must be careful in analysing the impact that his many reforms caused and the lasting nature that they had on the very foundations of Russian society.
Through his reign Peter revolutionised his country, 'reorganizing and strengthening the state and army, conquering new territories and building newnavy
, a seaport, and a new capital in St. Petersburg '1. The most significant change, Bushkovitch argues, was his campaign of Europeanisating Russia 's

The Military Instrument Of National Power
Instruments of national power encompass all of the means available to a government in its pursuit of national objectives. It is expressed as diplomatic,
economic, informational and military aspects. Of the four instruments of national power, the military instrument has had the most impact on the cycle
of Western interaction with the rest of the world.Military strength generally determines the ability of one nation to impose its will upon another nation.
Many military advancements allowed the West to become the first to explore the world and, eventually, to dominate these nations. This use of the
military instrument of national power was continued when the developing world used this instrument to free themselves, or, in some cases, attempt to
free themselves, from Western influence. The military instrument of national power ensured that the West would come to interact with, and dominate,
the developing world, and that these developing countries would take offense to this control thus guaranteeing that their future interactions with the
West would not be amicable.
The military instrument of power was one of the most influential instruments because it was one of the first to be examined as a potential instrument of

Between the 1500s and the 1700s, the frequency of war was at a shocking 95%, and in the 16th century there were only 10 years of peace (Roberts,
1956). War was every bit as part of European culture as the food they ate and the wine they drank; the desire for conquest and expansion, as well as
the spreading of religious dogma, frequently played a part in the political matters of the time.
According to Roberts, there were several key changes in warfare that occurred during this particular time–frame: key among these was a revolution in
war tactics, a marked growth in army size throughout the continent, the development of more complex strategies in order to maneuver these large
armies. As can be expected, larger armies required significantly more resources, such as food, ammunition, and medical supplies. Ultimately, this meant
that as more resources were pooled into their sustenance, there would be less and less available to civilians.
In Geoffrey Parker's The Military Revolution the author has a clear purpose: to understand how the West, comparatively small and lacking in natural
resources, was able to compensate for their shortcomings through the use of superior military power. The European supremacy stemmed from its

Persuasive Essay On Changing The Military
In the new government we are making, we should keep our current military. The purpose of a military is to protect a nation's citizens and territories
from threats. If we do not have an army, our new country will be left helpless if attacked. So, obviously we should keep it. Now the question is.
Should we change it or not. I believe that we should not change it. The military as is is powerful and helpful and important. The military has not failed
to keep us safe.
The local government provides public safety, fire protection, health, waste protection, housing, education, and public transportation.
Everyone is allowed the chance of being in the army. But people who are at a disadvantage such as being having terrible vision.
The current military budget is $598.5 billion. Budget it increasing due to new and modernized technology to serve well and insure its citizens will have
freedom.
In Article 1 Section 8 clause 12 it says, "To raise and support Armies, but no Appropriation of Money to that Use shall be for a longer Term than two
Years" Then in clause 13 it says, "To provide and maintain aNavy." In clause 15 it says, "To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of

The War Of Camp Lewis
Prepare for war! That is what you hear and your heart stops while your jaw opens and you gasp for air that is not there. While the history and
establishment of Camp Lewis is not as important as preparing for war, it is important to know the past in order to help posture and mold the future
of tomorrow. The idea for Camp Lewis was fought for by the civilian populace of Pierce County in Washington State. Late in1916, as war continued
to escalate in Europe, a private group of concerned citizens gathered at American Lake to organize a training program designed for civilian personnel.
The program was designed to encourage readiness among the community in preparation for the possibility of going to war in Europe. One of the
attending civilians was a cadet named Stephen Appleby. Mr. Appleby (a former Captain in the Minnesota National Guard) was vice
–president of the
Northwest Business Men's Preparedness League and a bank cashier for Tacoma Washington. He was informed that the Army was sending out a survey
team to the Northwest in search of establishing an Army Post. Mr. Appleby contacted the commander of the survey team and asked him to make a site

global phenomenon called the Age of Discovery which led to the understanding of the shape and the distribution of land on the Earth. Mapping of the

Explain the Economic Logic Underpinning Mahan's Theory of Sea Power
Captain Alfred Thayer Mahan published The Influence of Sea Power upon History, 1660–1783 in 1890, in which he attempted to analyze the role of
sea control throughout history. Mahan, a naval officer, used his sea experience to create a theory about naval history that is unlike any other history
work. Upon examination of Theodore Momsen's History of the Roman Empire, which included the history of the Second Punic War, Mahan emphasized
the significant role that sea communications played in Rome's victory. Additionally, he describes the relevance of different maritime campaigns in
various battles that took place during the French and American revolutions. Mahan evaluates ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Mahan devotes most of his introduction to the history of sea power. He starts by discussing how the manner in which a war is fought changes as
navies have evolved from galleys to steam ships as well as the advancement of weapons, but that the principles behind maritime war remain the same.
In effort to illustrate the importance of sea power throughout history, Mahan details the impact that sea power had on the second Punic War. The control
of the water by the Romans forced Hannibal to depart on the devastating venture through the Gaul. Instead of explaining the actual conflict at hand,
Mahan explores the strategy that would have been necessary to defeat Rome. The Carthaginians would have needed to invade the Roman Empire in
Italy either by sea or by transport through the Gaul. Rome had control over any strategic location available to the Carthaginians during the war and this
was all made possible by the sea. Analyzing this war specifically through the actions of the Roman Navy proves that the history of sea power is
crucial in understanding the history of the world. Mahan asserts his belief in the importance of learning from history by stating, "The battles of the
past succeeded or failed according as they were fought in conformity with the principles of war; and the seaman who carefully studies the causes of
success or failure will not only detect and gradually assimilate these principles, but will also inquire increased

Continuing the Greater Co–Prosperity Sphere Through Oil Independence
1.Addressing the Problem:
Due to the Japanese presence in China during the late 1930s and early 1940s, the United States embargoed oil exports to Japan as a punishment for
interfering with the open trade policy in China. This embargo was detrimental to the Japanese supply because Japan depended on the US for 80% of
its imported oil. The Japanese also had no significant natural sources of oil in its possession. Therefore, the oil problem became a crisis as military
demands quickly drained Japanese stockpiles. The Japanese needed to find oil to support its larger dream of establishing the Greater Co–Prosperity
Sphere (GCPS).

Nonetheless, Japanese leadership overwhelmingly agreed that the first choice was incompatible with GCPS and was therefore not a choice to consider.
2.The Alternative Approach:
A more effective approach would have been to appease the Americans in the short–term, while additionally searching for and quickly mobilizing other
sources of oil in order to reduce dependence on the US. This two–step approach would have been more effective in pursuing the Japanese's GCPS
because the short–term setback would have allowed for the long–term survival of Japan's plan to become a regional great power. By taking the
admittedly high–risk route of attacking Pearl Harbor, the Japanese significantly constricted the GCPS's chances of survival. In order to obtain vital
amounts of oil for the continuation of Japanese military power, appeasing the Americans by letting go of China for the time being would have allowed
the GCPS to survive another day and to continue once the country had obtained its own independent source of oil.

The appeasement of the Americans would have been feasible with some flexibility and long–term thinking. Appeasement of the Americans would have

Military Advantage
Tuition Assistance in the Military: Is it Worth it? College nowadays is expensive. Too expensive for any student to be able to pay without applying for
countless scholarships, hoping they can win just enough to push themselves through, or taking out incredibly large loans and going into debt to further
their education. However, there is a more reliable, more financially stable option. Students struggling with paying for college should join the military.
Although the military is a potentially dangerous and life–changing option, it is one of the better ways to get yourself through college, and set yourself
up for future job opportunities. As well as coverage of most college expenses, the military provides a multitude of other benefits, including
experience that is easily utilized in the civilian world. Although there is danger associated with joining the military, the benefits far outweigh the
costs. Especially with the many benefits and privileges that come along with it. The main reason many people would join the military for is the
coverage of college expenses. According to "College Costs: FAQ," the average cost of college tuition over 4 years can range anywhere from $9.4k
to $32.4k. Most college students, if working, work a minimum wage job due to lack of education for a higher paying job. In Oregon, the minimum

Little Ships During The Operation Dynamo
The role played by the Little Ships during the Operation Dynamo has been heavily mythicized by contemporary accounts of Dunkirk. For instance, a
heading in The Times from June 4, 1940 referred to the civilian vessels at Dunkirk as a "Magnificent Spirit". Furthermore, the column noted how
"Fishermen, yachtsmen, yacht–builders, yacht clubs, river boatmen" responded in Britain's time of need and how the civilian sailors "manned their craft
with volunteer crews and rushed them to the assembly point". Similarly, another piece from The Times helped illustrate a sense of mass, spontaneous
civilian participation by making reference to how the only complaints people had about volunteering their vessels Dunkirk "came from boat–owners
who could not get themselves onboard in time to go to their boats". Newspapers publishing articles such as the two noted above helped form the
public conception of the Little Ships as a mass armada of selfless volunteers who helped rescue countless Allied troops and delivered them to British
coastal ports. The pinnacle of this fantasifull narrative was Paul Gallico's short story, The Snow Goose, published in The Saturday Evening Post.
Within said novella, the protagonist narrates a romanticized rendition of the Little Ship story where "every tug and fishing boat or power launch that

Like Caesar, he was not afraid to get into the thick of the fighting to inspire his men. In a series of battles that included such as Montenotte, Mondovi,
Arcola and Rivoli, Bonaparte swept the board of ageing Austrian generals and established himself as one of the leading soldiers of his time. After
masterminding the Peace of Campo Formio, Bonaparte returned to Paris where he took command of the Army of England, an imposing force
neutered by England's wooden walls of its navy.Desperate to be both at Britain and pushing his own reputation, Bonaparte planned an expedition to
Egypt to threaten his foe's trading routes. He sailed from Toulon in 1798 and, after capturing Malta, made it to Egypt in early July. The campaign
began brilliantly when he smashed the power of the ruling Mamelukes at the Battle of the Pyramids, but was crippled when Nelson's hound–pack fleet
finally caught up with the French navy at Aboukir (Battle of the Nile) and sank all but four of the 17–ship force. Stranded and with suspect supply lines,
Bonaparte moved into Syria and won the battle of Mt Tabor before being halted by fierce and stubborn resistance at Acre. Realising the potential

The Lack of Free Speech in the Military
As a member of the United States military, there are times that the very freedoms that are being defended are not extended to those sailors and
soldiers that are in charge of that task. One of those freedoms is freedom of speech. As a veteran of the United States Navy, I find the limitation of
speech for a member of the military to be contradictory at best. The very fact that members of the armed forces cannot speak freely about government
officials, as well as government issues that affect their lives, seems to be controversial because it limits one of the freedoms these sailors and
soldiers have vowed to protect. To oppose the right of free speech of any member of the military takes away from the importance of the job they do.
It has been argued that a member of the military should be mindful of whom they work for and the chain of command that orders come from, and that
any display of dissatisfaction can be seen as disobedience or even treason.
I support members of the military being able to voice their thoughts on issues that impact their lives, as well as the lives of their families. There are a
few reasons why I support this. Simply put, as Americans they have the right of freedom of speech. Given the responsibilities of these sailors and

industry in Okinawa, which was the main industry in Okinawa, suffered catastrophically. In response, the U.S.military increased the pay for the local
workers they hire and urged the Okinawans in the agricultural industries to come work for the U.S. military. Approximately 70,000 local workers were
hired by the U.S. military at most in the 1960s. In 2014, the U.S. military base employs about 8,600 people from Okinawa and is considered as the
second largest employer in Okinawa, which is right below the Okinawan Prefectural government. (The United States Marine Corps) The population of
Okinawa in 2014 was approximately 1,400,000, excluding the U.S. service men and their family members. (Okinawa Prefecture Planning

To demilitarize meant to leave ones self open and vulnerable for other countries to take over. Had Germany disarmed peacefully, they would have
been taken apart and conquered by the rest of Europe. Therefore the arms race was also a defensive strategy in order to keep up with the rest of the

mobilization race is likely to lose the war" (Stratachon 37). This kind of belief illustrates that war had been on peoples minds' for a long time even

The Air Force prides itself with quality over capacity. "Aircraft average 27 years old"(Cooper) the aircraft are older and the Air Force has less of
them than ever before. This is from sequestrations and liquidations under Acts like the BCA for many years. Consequently, the Air Force did not
grow during the military build after 9/11. Instead they chose to upgrade their Airplanes and buildings, different from other branches who chose to
expand their capacity. The Air Force has been continually cut to the point of "not enough money to fly sorties and pilots being unable to maintain
cockpit skills"(Cooper). Nevertheless, pilots are unable to maintain their skills flying due to lack of funding and unable to conduct their missions.
Notwithstanding, the Air Force is not able to even fly because they do not have the Aircraft nor the money to fly their Aircraft. This has caused "the
most current and qualified Air Force fighter pilots are flying at a rate so low that we could have considered them unfit for combat in the 80's and
90's"(Cooper). Accordingly, when pilots are not getting enough time up in the air it causes more errors and makes pilots more likely to commit fatal
mistakes. This also gives the enemy an advantage in the air when engaged in combat because the more practice pilots have at flying the better the pilot.

Essay On Great Military Leader And The Military Budgeting

  • 1. Essay on Great Military Leader and The Military Budgeting Mankind must put an end to war, before war puts an end to mankind, John F. Kennedy. The U.S. military budget is a great cause for concern both for the federal deficit and the matter of safety. While there are many changes that need to be made to our federal budget one of the most evident issues is the amount of money the United States spends on the military. The United States needs to cut its military spending to aid in reducing the deficit, increase American safety, bring the global view of America back into a positive light, and help foreign relations with other governments. The United States had to borrower over 514 billion dollars last year in order to cover our national budget, and of the 3.881 trillion dollar budget 640 billion of it ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Global military leaders have displayed that their military spending is often tit for tat which will only employ an increase of military spending instead of engaging foreign policy. China has gathered that they in no way can compete with our naval forces so instead of creating a naval arms race they have invested heavily into anti–ship ballistic missile programs (U.S. Naval Institute, 2009), which in turn the United States has stated in light of Chinas increased defense towards our military they have proposed a $110 billion dollar program to modernize our fleet. So in hindsight, America wanted a better naval force to protect its allies overseas and made 11 air craft carriers, China saw this as a threat so they made anti–ballistic missiles to destroy them, so the U.S. military saw this as a threat and invested funds into an anti–ballistic missile defense for the ships, and the cycle continues. At no point does anyone truly become safer, in fact, globally everyone is simply discovering more ways to become devastatingly more destructive and violent and with it the spending and budgets importance is disregarded as the deficit looms. Alternatively, there are historically recent examples of military spending cuts and why they would effectively increase American safety ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 2. Persuasive Speech On Transgenders In The Military Transgender Military Ban Discrimination is still a major issue all over the world in today's society. For instance, In the United States, transgenders have now been banned to serve in the military. These people deserve the potential and capability to defend their nation. Many close–minded people come to the conclusion that transgenders are weak and it is affecting our military when in reality they are doing the complete opposite. They deserve to be treated equally and be given the same rights because they are also a human and deserve the same respect. The overall best decision is to lift the ban and apologize for taking away their rights or else there will never be equality in our society. Just a year ago, transgenders were given the right to freely serve in the military, but now Donald Trump took away their ability to do so. On July 26, Trump tweeted, " Our military must be forced on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you." (Trump) He has called these certain soldiers a burden because the costs are going to medical purposes instead of strengthening the military. Although this may be true to an extent, it is not a very reasonable reason to take away their right to serve. A study has shown that the treatments would cost, "... we expect only a 0.13–percent ($8.4 million out of $6.2 billion) increase in health care spending... By contrast, total military ...

  • 3. Propagande, Russia, and USA I know you heard about this. It was propaganda at its best and Russia just posts what the U.S. is whining about. Russia has learned that western media makes itself look like an ignorant buffoon, because the western press has a very low level of intelligence to deal with in its stories. Americans as a rule are not that well educated and reading is a byproduct of that situation. So post the dribble from the west and the west looks less and less intelligent everyday... The Pentagon said a Russian fighter jet made multiple close–range passes near an American navy destroyer. The warship was deployed in the Black Sea as Russian military monitored NATO's systematic build–up of naval forces in the region. "This provocative and unprofessional Russian action is inconsistent with their national protocols and previous agreements on the professional interaction between our militaries," said Colonel Steve Warren, a Pentagon spokesman. "I have difficulty believing that two Russian pilots on their own would choose to take such an action." First lets understand where this happened. This did not happen in the Gulf of Mexico or somewhere near the U.S., it happened near Russia and Ukraine and it was in the Black Sea. Now the Black Sea is about as big as a old time washtub when it comes to putting tons and tons of warships in it... Right now the Black Sea is way too crowded. As of today there are 5 non–black sea state warships operating in the Black Sea: USS Truxtun DDG–103 Displacement ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 4. Essay Military Bearing In the United States NAVY, military bearing is the root in which every service member practices in order to carry out good discipline and ethics throughout ones military careers. The Eleven General Orders of a Sentry, The Articles of the UCMJ, as well as our own Sailors Creed illustrates how a military service member should conduct himself or herself on a daily basis, on and off duty. Dependability is a major aspect of military bearing.

Respecting senior officers is imperative in order to maintain good military order up and down the chain of command. Punctuality is a key aspect of ones NAVY career. Tardiness can affect the mission of the command. In such an event as General Quarte! rs, one can not afford to be late in carrying out their assigned tasks, for the repercussions can be life threatening to ones fellow shipmates, as well as to the integrity of the ship. Being late to watch can affect the quality of work being done in the work environment. Quarters is a vital necessity within our NAVY where ones chain of command can brief all hands on new information concerning either the workspaces or ones specific job. Watch standing is every sailor's duty. Without a proper and thorough turnover it hinders the effectiveness of the watch station. Missing information during turnover can result in wasted man–hours, equipment damage, or can compromise the security of the command in which one works. Physical readiness standards are another element of military bearing. Physical readiness standards or better known as PRT's are held every six months for NAVY personnel.

  • 9. Napoleon Bonaparte Essay Napoleon Bonaparte is regarded as one of the greatest military and political masterminds in the history of man. Napoleon's brilliance led him through extremely successful Italian campaigns, major battles against the Third Coalition and helped him rule politically to keep the gains of the revolution. Napoleon, through his military conquests and political alterations, made France a great nation. Napoleon Bonaparte was born on August 15th, 1769 in small town of Ajaccio on the island of Corsica. He had sevensiblings, and his father was a lawyer whose family stemmed from the Florentine nobility. In 1779, Napoleon went to school at Brienne in France.

Then in October of 1795, the government was threatened with a revolt in Paris. Paul Barras, commander of the home forces, appointed Napoleon to defend the capital. With amazing swiftness Napoleon massed men and artillery at important places in Paris so that the attack of 30,000 national guards was driven back by his men. Napoleon had saved the national convention from the Parisian mob, and one year later at the age of 26 he was rewarded with the position of commander in chief of the interior French army in Italy. Once Napoleon took over it did not take long for him to turn the group of ill–disciplined soldiers into an effective fighting force. In a series of stunning victories, Napoleon defeated four Austrian generals in succession; every army he fought was larger than the last. This forced Austria and its allies to make peace with France. Throughout his Italian campaigns, Napoleon won the confidence of his men through his energy, charm, and ability to comprehend complex issues quickly and make decisions rapidly. These qualities, combined with his keen intelligence, ease with words, and supreme confidence in himself, enabled him throughout the rest of his life to influence nations, and win their firm support. In July 1798, the Austrians sent three powerful waves of men through the Alps. In only six days, Napoleon and his men attacked each wave of soldiers, and defeated them all separately.

France was at war with Austria, Prussia, England, Holland, and Spain. There was a revolt in western France, and there was a great need for good officers. At the age of 25, only one year after becoming captain, Napoleon performed so well that he was promoted to the rank of Brigadier General. He was given command of the artillery at Toulon, and in December of that same year, the French forced the English out of Toulon.

Within Canada, the military attempts to cover a wide range of capabilities and maximize their utility. Instead, Canada could contract specialized companies as the need arises. For example, should Canada decided to launch a peacekeeping mission the government could contract a private policing corporation who specializes in addressing crime. Furthermore, in theory a free market economy would force competition between security companies which would encourage the most efficient and effective service to provide the services required by Canada. Force agility is improved with private companies in mobility, scalability, and adaptability. Mobility is a matter of how forces can be transported and equipment is deployed. For private military companies, the ability to contract logistical services to private airlines or shipping companies can far exceed the capabilities of the Canadian military without the cost of maintenance or the challenges of procurement policies. The ability to scale up and demobilize forces quickly is important from a policy perspective and was demonstrated by private military companies in the Iraq conflict.

Many types of aircraft were produced and an aircraft engine was advanced from a trial product to mass production and operation. The flying boat, in 1919, was the first aircraft to fly the Atlantic Ocean. This aircraft was Naval Aviation's outstanding technical product of World War I. Many aviators were impressed with the flying boat and urged that it would be the means to take airpower to sea. However, other officers believed and insisted that aircraft should fly from combatant ships at sea. During the 1920s, development grew in both the flying boat and the proposed aircraft carrier. Finally, the aircraft carrier won many hearts of naval officers and the Navy decided to convert a collier to a carrier. This conversion would be the beginning of a movement that would gain the attention of ship builders, aircraft designers, and naval tacticians for the years ahead (Grossnick, 23). In the 1920s, Naval Aviation increased both in size and in strength. In this decade of growth, air detachments proved themselves effective under the conditions at sea.

Especially, the transformation he made to Russian culture, politics and economic, which arguably changed the foundations of society. Thus, the interval of some three hundred years has allowed us to access Peter the Great 's reforms more accurately but we must consider that Russia during the late 17th century existed in different ethical and social circumstances to our own contemporary society as to make it almost a foreign civilisation. Judgements about Peter the Great using today 's political and moral perspectives may have to be tempered unless we are accused of historical and cultural relativism. Therefore, we must be careful in analysing the impact that his many reforms caused and the lasting nature that they had on the very foundations of Russian society. Through his reign Peter revolutionised his country, 'reorganizing and strengthening the state and army, conquering new territories and building newnavy , a seaport, and a new capital in St. Petersburg '1. The most significant change, Bushkovitch argues, was his campaign of Europeanisating Russia 's culture which saw the introduction of all forms of Western advancements emerge into the society and by 1725, Russia had achieved the aim of entering on the European stage.

Of the four instruments of national power, the military instrument has had the most impact on the cycle of Western interaction with the rest of the world.Military strength generally determines the ability of one nation to impose its will upon another nation. Many military advancements allowed the West to become the first to explore the world and, eventually, to dominate these nations. This use of the military instrument of national power was continued when the developing world used this instrument to free themselves, or, in some cases, attempt to free themselves, from Western influence. The military instrument of national power ensured that the West would come to interact with, and dominate, the developing world, and that these developing countries would take offense to this control thus guaranteeing that their future interactions with the West would not be amicable. The military instrument of power was one of the most influential instruments because it was one of the first to be examined as a potential instrument of power.

War was every bit as part of European culture as the food they ate and the wine they drank; the desire for conquest and expansion, as well as the spreading of religious dogma, frequently played a part in the political matters of the time. According to Roberts, there were several key changes in warfare that occurred during this particular time–frame: key among these was a revolution in war tactics, a marked growth in army size throughout the continent, the development of more complex strategies in order to maneuver these large armies. As can be expected, larger armies required significantly more resources, such as food, ammunition, and medical supplies. Ultimately, this meant that as more resources were pooled into their sustenance, there would be less and less available to civilians. In Geoffrey Parker's The Military Revolution the author has a clear purpose: to understand how the West, comparatively small and lacking in natural resources, was able to compensate for their shortcomings through the use of superior military power.

In effort to illustrate the importance of sea power throughout history, Mahan details the impact that sea power had on the second Punic War. The control of the water by the Romans forced Hannibal to depart on the devastating venture through the Gaul. Instead of explaining the actual conflict at hand, Mahan explores the strategy that would have been necessary to defeat Rome. The Carthaginians would have needed to invade the Roman Empire in Italy either by sea or by transport through the Gaul. Rome had control over any strategic location available to the Carthaginians during the war and this was all made possible by the sea. Analyzing this war specifically through the actions of the Roman Navy proves that the history of sea power is crucial in understanding the history of the world.

This two–step approach would have been more effective in pursuing the Japanese's GCPS because the short–term setback would have allowed for the long–term survival of Japan's plan to become a regional great power.

Furthermore, the column noted how "Fishermen, yachtsmen, yacht–builders, yacht clubs, river boatmen" responded in Britain's time of need and how the civilian sailors "manned their craft with volunteer crews and rushed them to the assembly point".

The campaign began brilliantly when he smashed the power of the ruling Mamelukes at the Battle of the Pyramids, but was crippled when Nelson's hound–pack fleet finally caught up with the French navy at Aboukir (Battle of the Nile) and sank all but four of the 17–ship force. Stranded and with suspect supply lines, Bonaparte moved into Syria and won the battle of Mt Tabor before being halted by fierce and stubborn resistance at Acre. Realising the potential success of his campaign was now limited, if not impossible, Bonaparte decided to abandon his army and get back to the centre of power – Paris – and make sure his position had not been undermined. Popular with the people, Bonaparte found the loathed Directory very cool towards his ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 32. The Lack of Free Speech in the Military As a member of the United States military, there are times that the very freedoms that are being defended are not extended to those sailors and soldiers that are in charge of that task. One of those freedoms is freedom of speech. As a veteran of the United States Navy, I find the limitation of speech for a member of the military to be contradictory at best. The very fact that members of the armed forces cannot speak freely about government officials, as well as government issues that affect their lives, seems to be controversial because it limits one of the freedoms these sailors and soldiers have vowed to protect. To oppose the right of free speech of any member of the military takes away from the importance of the job they do. It has been argued that a member of the military should be mindful of whom they work for and the chain of command that orders come from, and that any display of dissatisfaction can be seen as disobedience or even treason. I support members of the military being able to voice their thoughts on issues that impact their lives, as well as the lives of their families. There are a few reasons why I support this. Simply put, as Americans they have the right of freedom of speech. Given the responsibilities of these sailors and soldiers in their day–to–day jobs, they should be entrusted to know what to say and what not to say. Most people take for granted the right to speak one's mind, right or wrong, and have nearly no ramifications for doing so. When one ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

First of all, the U.S. military bases bring economic benefits to Okinawa. After large portions of Okinawa 's land was taken by the U.S. military, the agricultural industry in Okinawa, which was the main industry in Okinawa, suffered catastrophically. In response, the U.S.military increased the pay for the local workers they hire and urged the Okinawans in the agricultural industries to come work for the U.S. military. Approximately 70,000 local workers were hired by the U.S. military at most in the 1960s. In 2014, the U.S. military base employs about 8,600 people from Okinawa and is considered as the second largest employer in Okinawa, which is right below the Okinawan Prefectural government. (The United States Marine Corps) The population of Okinawa in 2014 was approximately 1,400,000, excluding the U.S. service men and their family members. (Okinawa Prefecture Planning Department Statistics Division) Though the number of Okinawan workers hired to work in the military has decreased to less than one percent of the population, there are several benefits for the workers.

Quite a bit of the produce was making its way up to Washington D.C. by train. It was touch and go for a bit for Captain O'Hara and Major Luxon. There were some farms and ranches east of Hawkesbury Farm and some of the ranching and farming communities had joined forces and created their own states, with their own local governments and declared they were no longer part of the United States. Captain O'Hara was notified that there was flash traffic waiting for him at the base communications center. It was only a shortwave radio, but it was better than nothing. Captain O'Hara was in the middle of an inspection when his Executive Officer told him in no uncertain terms he needed to get his ass over to the communications center and read the message. He told his commander that, of course he couldn't read it, because it was classified for his eyes only, but a little bird told him it was no ordinary message and he needed to get his ass over there.

Many historians say that this event was the cause of World War I. There is also a theory that the assassination of the Archduke was only a trigger and that the war itself was caused by numerous other historical events and developments including imperialism, militarism, and alliances. Militarism was the leading factor in the outbreak of war. Militarism is the philosophy that a country's significance is shown through its military might. Such a violent ideal promotes a unnecessarily strong military force and an aggressive demeanor while negotiating national interests. Without it the World War Iwould not happen on ...

Had Germany disarmed peacefully, they would have been taken apart and conquered by the rest of Europe. Therefore the arms race was also a defensive strategy in order to keep up with the rest of the world. Even as far back as in 1870, 34 years before World War I took place, every German staff officer in Europe knew "the nation which loses the mobilization race is likely to lose the war" (Stratachon 37). This kind of belief illustrates that war had been on peoples minds' for a long time even before it took place. Once the gears of war were set in motion, there was no stopping them. Britain at the time was the largest empire in the world, and also had the largest navy, that was immensely envied by The Kaiser William II of Germany In 1898 the Kaiser passed the First Navy Law, which demanded a 30 percent increase in total naval fleet size and the replacement of older warships. Germany's Secretary of State referred to this as a "political power" (Beresford et al 1611) to be used against the British. Britain's naval strength was one of the reasons for its success in creating colonies as as far out as China.

Many deployed parents also feel guilt when they miss significant events that occur in their children's lives. Many resources suggest that loved ones should send many pictures or videos of the children, so that the service–member does not feel totally excluded in their children's life. Even though the Department Of Defense and many private organizations have many resources and also have started many support programs to help military families, many families still struggle to cope with the separations during long deployments. One effect that some military children face is the inability to focus on their education while they are worried about their deployed or absent parent or other family member. In Lyle Amaani's article, "Much– Traveled Military Children Enjoy Opportunities, Face Challenges", Navy Admiral Harry B. Harris Jr states, "It's no surprise that studies have shown that children of military parents are often more vulnerable to fear and anxiety, and that those stressors manifest themselves behaviorally and academically".

Social forces such as racism, thinking that themselves, the Europeans were better than whomever they were taking over. Political forces used militarism more often than not to take the less–developed locations of the world.

This small coin features the organization's distinctive logo. Members carry it as a proof of their membership. The use of Challenge coins started during the World War I where all members of the United StatesNavy Force, the Flying Squadron received bronze coins.

"Aircraft average 27 years old"(Cooper) the aircraft are older and the Air Force has less of them than ever before. This is from sequestrations and liquidations under Acts like the BCA for many years. Consequently, the Air Force did not grow during the military build after 9/11. Instead they chose to upgrade their Airplanes and buildings, different from other branches who chose to expand their capacity. The Air Force has been continually cut to the point of "not enough money to fly sorties and pilots being unable to maintain cockpit skills"(Cooper). Nevertheless, pilots are unable to maintain their skills flying due to lack of funding and unable to conduct their missions. Notwithstanding, the Air Force is not able to even fly because they do not have the Aircraft nor the money to fly their Aircraft. This has caused "the most current and qualified Air Force fighter pilots are flying at a rate so low that we could have considered them unfit for combat in the 80's and 90's"(Cooper). Accordingly, when pilots are not getting enough time up in the air it causes more errors and makes pilots more likely to commit fatal mistakes. This also gives the enemy an advantage in the air when engaged in combat because the more practice pilots have at flying the better the pilot.
