Abstract. This Paper Will Explore The Roles And Motivational
Abstract
This paper will explore the roles and motivational factors of Commissioned Officers in the United States military. The professional leader lives and
embodies the values of the organizational culture that is the military. The military is constructed upon a hierarchal organization structure composed of
individuals with the yearning to lead others to the standards set in place by military ethos. The role of a commissioned officer is to embody these values
in and out of uniform while also leading and mentoring those around him to result in a successful work environment. This paper will illustrate how the
military maintains the high standard of a successful organization with the guidance of its commissioned officers.

Non–commissioned officers work in a middle management role and delegate to lower ranking soldiers. Leadership styles and the motivators used by
commissioned officers influences their ability to establish a cohesive work environment.
Officers are assumed to be natural born leaders and the initial enhancement of these skills are to take place during the length of their four–year degree
with the guidance of The Reserve Officer's Training Corps (ROTC). ROTC broadly introduces students to different leadership styles and how to apply
them to scenarios that may arise throughout the duration of their career. The instructors in an ROTC program are composed of non–commissioned
officers who are enlisted soldiers that rise through the ranks and become the direct supervisors of lower enlisted soldiers. Non–commission officers can
guide with the experience they possess and commissioned officers lack. Officers commission into the military with the intent to maintain a
supervisorial position throughout their whole career but in various positions and ranks. In a study conducted about military leadership, Utecht and
Heier(1976) refered to leadership competence as the deciding factor that moves officers among various levels in the military. Officers are expected to
be multifaceted and easily adapt to the conditions and requirements of any given position.
Utecht and Heier's study intended to test Fielder's contingency theory in predicting military leaders were only successful because

I uncovered the difference between ROTC graduates and non–ROTC graduates of major United States (US) universities, and feel that ROTC is truly
beneficial for young adults looking to compete in tomorrows workforce. The constant challenge has provoked me to leave my comfort zone and
explore my potential endeavors on a road of perpetual success. I truly believe that through my personal experiences in college, ROTC cadets will
leave college better prepared to face the challenges of the world. While at the same time ROTC cadets will be able to outperform other university
students because we have been trained in an environment of constant completion, where success is not achieved by the completion of the job but
deserved by the ability to do the job better than everyone else. With that being said, ROTC cadets are also held to a higher level of respect and
honor. Customs and Courtesies are expected, and codes of conduct must be followed. This higher level of respect is taught through the different
genres and Lexis, and while this may sound very harsh and obsessive, I have come to enjoy the organization of the Air Force, and the respect of the
various people that I work with on a daily basis.

Recruitment of Child Soldiers Essay
"Children belong on playgrounds, not battlegrounds. The use of child soldiers is one of the most egregious human right violations of our times"
affirms Rep. Jeff Fortenberry after witnessing a human tragedy, of children who were forced into military service. Today, an estimated 300,000
children under the age 18 are participating in armed conflicts worldwide. Approximately 20 countries, including The United States of America

military, if you don?t like it, you can simply quit under the ?Failure to Adapt? discharge and it won?t affect anything on your record.? Along with lying
to accomplish the goal of increasing enlistments, recruiters have resorted to fabricating backgrounds and forging physical reports to ensure that the
teenager qualifies for enlistment. Some recruiters have stooped so low by providing ?kidney cleaners? to help the teenagers pass urine screening for

school JROTC (Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps) career. Over the summer I had moved from Virginia to Boston and because of the different
requirements in each state, I had taken classes earlier at my old school. My new school did not have a band class so instead, I decided to join JROTC

to learn drill and ceremony. These more dedicated students were the ones that had the opportunity to earn higher ranks. As a person, I was always shy

Characteristics Of A Discourse Community
At the beginning of this semester I decided to join Montana State University's Army ROTC program with no prior knowledge of the program
other than it will pay for my tuition. When the school year started I realized very quickly that this was a very strict and structured community. We
are required to be at school at 0600 four days a week, attend mandatory weekend trainings, and volunteer in the community. Thankfully when
something is done consecutively it just becomes habit. This research is derived from my personal drive to figure out if the Army ROTC is an
accurate depiction of a discourse community. In an excerpt from Writing about Writing, John Swales does a profound job in describing six unique
characteristics of a discourse community; however, I believe that the two fundamental characteristics that define the Army ROTC as a discourse
community are "a broadly agreed set of common public goals" (Swales 220), and "a threshold level of members with a suitable degree of relevant
content and discoursal expertise" (Swales 222). These two characteristics not only depict a discourse community but also describe a department that
effectively develops young men and women to their full potential as leaders. The current generation of young students, friends, workers, and leaders
are chained down by the reoccurring problem of "the easy way out". Searching the internet for material that past generations worked hard for,
researched books, and took notes on is offensive in my point of

reason only. I no longer have my parents ' direction, or have someone showing me what is right, and I would be wrong in making my time here

There are many discourse communities that we participate in life, one of the mine was J.R.O.T.C or Junior reserve officer training corps. The point
of the program was to promote young people to be better citizens. I felt I exemplified these point as I participated in teams, was a leader in the

which consisted of Drill, Rifle, Colorguard, and, P.T ( Physical Training). I joined my freshman year and I was active in the unarmed/armed drill and
P.T team throughout all of my years ofhigh school. Drill consisted of memorizing sequences with and without rifles to perfection and adding in

Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps Report
Introduction
The Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (JROTC) was created with the passing of the National Defense Act of 1916. Since then, more than 1,700
units have been created in the Army branch alone. I will be focusing on Blackman High School's JROTC which was founded in 2000.
Group Dynamics
The JROTC program at Blackman High School consists of students from freshmen to seniors as well as two adult instructors. The two instructors
consist of a retired officer known as the Senior Army Instructor (SAI) and a retired enlisted known as the Army Instructor (AI). There is no application
process as students simply sign up for the class during registration.

Through these conversations, cadets are likely to use JROTC jargon and terms that are unique to the program. From acronyms such as LET (Leadership
Education Training) to phrases such as "double time" (to run instead of walk), JROTC's own literacy is vital to effectively communicate in a brief
amount of time.
I investigated how cadets' communication evolved while they were in JROTC and how they used word of mouth to achieve the program's goals.
Colonel Spry mentions that cadets' discussions when they first start out in the program are not very serious in nature, but as they grow and move up in
the program they begin to mature and have thoughtful discussions on how to solve a problem and what kind of plan it would take to resolve it.
Lacuniak states that one of the ways cadets learn leadership is by knowing how to effectively communicate through a chain of command and how to
talk to superiors. She also says that cadets learn communication and critical thinking skills from lessons taught by the instructors. These are the ways
that cadets achieve one of the program's goals by enhancing leadership, communication, and critical thinking skills as well as contribute to the overall

Reflection Paper
"Because transition is a process by which people unplug into a new world, we can say that transition starts with an ending and finishes with a
beginning." In many ways the previous quote relations to my transition of transferring from Saint Peter's University to UNC Charlotte. I had to
"unplug" from many things in both my academic and personal life, as a result of, transferring to another school.
For me "unplugging" means leaving or disconnecting to what you are used to. Something I had to unplug from was living in New Jersey and being
in the Saint Peter's University environment. I lived in New Jersey for much of my childhood before I lived in Maryland, so when I decided to go to
college in New Jersey it was like I was returning home. Going to Saint Peter's University was great, but being there made me unplug from something
very important to me; my family. My family moved to North Carolina right before I started college. They were in North Carolina and I was in New
Jersey, which meant we were ten hours away from each other. For a whole year, I didn't really see my family much. I only saw them on longer
school breaks and eventually, that started to play a negative toll on me emotionally. Before things got really bad I took initiative and started applying
for schools in North Carolina. When I got accepted into UNC Charlotte I was happy because I could be closer to my family, but I knew that I was going
to have to unplug once again.

The Goals of Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps
Popular Value? There are a number of eminent boons associated with the Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (JROTC), a program which is
offered as an elective at public high schools across the nation. However, many of these positives do not directly correlate to academic achievement.
An explanation of this fact partially stems from the very nature of the program as an elective, it is limited in the amount of educational value it can
impart to students, which is certainly lesser than that of the value afforded students via daily coursework offered in standard classes. Importantly, the
public funds of the JROTC make it a viable option for students in light of regulations regarding federal and state regulations limitations mandated by
1995's Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (Dilger and Bess, 2008, p. 1). Yet a thorough analysis of this program, which includes the Navy JROTC as
well as that relating to the Army, Air Force and Marines, indicates that the positives associated with this program include both tangible and intangible
aspects, which rewards America's high school students both during and after their postsecondary careers. In order to determine the degree of efficacy
the JROTC produces within the lives of its students, it is first necessary to elucidate the history of this program, which was implemented on a
nationwide level in 1916 yet had individual components as far back as the latter portion of the 19the century (Pema and Mehay, 2009, p. 533). The

overseas. Cadet enrollment has also grown exponentially with 314,000 cadets guided by 4,000 professionals all around the United States, and more to

It is safe to say that the JROTC will continue creating bright and disciplined citizens as it has been doing for the past century; citizens who will
uphold the Constitution and protect the American way of life, true patriots who live for their country and fellow countrymen, men and women with

Many are accustomed the term Military Brat as a derogatory label towards a child of an active or retired military service member. As Military
Brats they understand that there is no time to forge bonds with people. Brats are forced to combine a lifetime of memories into just a few years,
before they pack up everything to be transported to a different state or to a different country. Fully expected to learn a new language if needed,
adjust to a culture faster than most would want; all of which at an unrealistic speed in the eyes of the regular world. Most attending 5 or more

worthwhile bonds. But truthfully, the bonds formed by military brats alike, are unstoppable. In the short time that they had together, they were forged
from blood, sweat, and tears, and built to withstand the passages of time. The family dynamics that military brats are accustomed to are for more

author was growing up it seems as though his father was too concerned with his struggles of life and never built a bond with his son. In today's
society economic, social, and other desires hinder parents and children from having effective and valuable relationships. His father was occupied
trying to locate a stable job for his family. His father's drinking problem and adulterous ways of living joined with constantly moving made it difficult
to have a steady relationship with his son. I spotted that the author did not mention about his wife and son and their relationship much. Therefore it is
likely that he would suffer from the same incapability to form a bond with his son, just like his father was unable to do with him. The relationship

Military Self Assessment
The military has shaped me in countless ways, and while everyone is born with predisposed personality traits, many other characteristics are honed
through experiences and environmental factors. As a leader, it becomes important to understand and assess how life experiences and the environment
affect organizational behavior, personal interactions, and individual behavior. One element of self–assessment involves understanding individual
strengths and weaknesses through introspection; the Army requires its leaders to continually assess their strengths and weakness. My three greatest
strengths, emotional intelligence, ability to think critically, and work ethic, are a mix of natural ability and learned behavior from my upbringing in
rural Alabama. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Early in my Army career, I noticed the most universal trait that always seemed separate an individual's performance was hard work working, and
those people that cared about their contribution to the team. To this day, those valuable lessons from childhood my childhood on the farm make my
professional endeavors easier to achieve. Generally, hard work indicates a caring for something greater, and this translates into a dependability and
flexibility that grew from my strong work ethic. As a senior in my university's Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) program, I was nominated to
hold a senior leadership position, and I received the nomination because of my compassion, work ethic, dependability, and flexibility. My work ethic
is the most important strength I possess, and it has served me well in my personal and professional life. I have succeeded in the Army in part due to
three of my strengths: emotional intelligence, critical thinking and hard work. The lessons I learned in early childhood and my predispositions
fostered a capacity to engage, analyze, and follow through with tasks, and while no one gets to where they are by themselves, my three greatest
strengths have separated me from my peers. Furthermore, I am confident these skills will enable me to stand out as a student at the graduate level once

Persuasive Speech
"Do not change so people will like you. Be yourself and the right people will love the real you." Every single day of my life I have lived by this
quote and have felt the effects of it but it was not until two years ago that I understood it. "MARGARET ANNE BECKETT get your butt out of
bed!" my mom screamed from outside my door. I trudged out of bed in desperate need of caffeine. I have never been fond of the morning but this
morning I was desperately hoping would just disappear. You know that day that you wish would just fall into the background and would never
happen again. My first day of JROTC was just that. I despised the Army program with all my heart. Why did I have to do this stupid program it was
full of people I didn't know who would think I was the strangest person that they ever met. Taking the shortest shower known to humanity I threw on a
hoodie I had permanently borrowed from one of my sibling and a pair of yoga pants. The smell of eggs wafted down the hallway and I knew in my
heart that they were for me. I slowly trudged into the kitchen dreading the moment those yellow runny things slid on my plate. "Mom don't we have
something else to eat for breakfast we have already had them 4 times this week and it is only Wednesday." If there is a look that could make a grown

In high school everyone expects you to find out who you want to be before you graduate, some of us do and some of us do not. Teachers,
counselors, administrators, your own family will tell you that what you do with your four years of high school will define you who you are and who
you will become in the future. I may not know who I might become but I have spent the past three and half years doing something I am passionate

Reflection Paper On Jrotc
JROTC (Junior Reserve Officer's Training Corps) has made many important changes to my life. I have learned a lot in my LET 1 year and besides
that, I was able to try out new things I never would've. This program does indeed allow young people to become citizens and I am very satisfied
with the person I am today. I've learned so much about leadership and everything you must have in order to pertain it. In addition, I've also made
many new friends and this is one of the very few classes that I would talk about outside of school because I am very proud of being a cadet to such
an amazing battalion. JROTC allowed me to go through so much and without it, I wouldn't have been able to open myself up and realize what my
dreams are and how to pursue them. JROTC has given me a more meaningful life since I was able to find out what my goals are, what my strengths
and weakness are, as well as the kind of person that I should and want to be.
When I first joined this program, I was ready to drop out because I don't see myself wearing the uniform, and in fact, I was worried about what others
would think of me in the uniform. I didn't like the fact that I can't have my hair down, have long nails, or the fact that I have to wear such a serious
uniform. However, after realizing what a great opportunity being in JROTC was, I took pride in my uniform. I was expected to make sacrifices and

Being a platoon commander, I had to make eighteen individuals have the mindset of a team, in order to prepare them for Annual Military Inspection.
This worked to the utmost degree, because we passed our Annual Military Inspection and were recognized as an distinguished unit with academic
honors, and we were the Area Four Most Outstanding Unit. Knowing that I was apart of achieving this honor is the most overwhelming feeling of
accomplishment. This showed me that I was growing into someone who could change a group of individuals into a team, and that was something I
could have never imagined before NJROTC. This skill would be put to it's ultimate test the coming summer, when I was chosen to go back to Area

The mission of Jrotc is to motivate young people to become better citizens. The Jrotc lessons that helped me prepare for service to others are leadership,
citizenship, organization, and last but not least, teamwork. Leadership has to have a great leader who knows how to lead, and listen. A leader has
to be able to want to help others, and plan when to do a project to help others. To become a better citizen, you have to have great citizenship. Being a
citizen is all about helping and giving service to others. Everyone needs help once in awhile. If you are giving service to others, you have to be
organized. Organization is knowing when you are going to help, who is going to help, and why you are going to help. You have to be organized,
in order to help others. Organization is the key to success in giving service to others. Last, but not least teamwork is important. Teamwork is all
about getting a group of people and cooperating together. It would be more effective if a team helped give service to others, other than just one
person. There is no I in team. In order to have great teamwork, and really give service to others, everyone has to have a role or play a part. If
everyone works together, teamwork will never fail. These are the lessons that makes service to others so important. In participating in service to
others, I learned that service to others is very important. Always work hard, and do your best while helping others. Hard work pays off, for an

However, what you can expect are long hours of classes and physical labor. These schools are made to break down thesoldier and build them up so
when the soldier is placed in his next duty station he is ready to begin to take more initiative and earn the respect of his/her subordinates. Once those
schools are completed the soldiers will begin the careers as NCOs' but would not be the end of the learning. To move up in the ranks even further, the
soldier must continue to demonstrate great leadership and selflessness. There will be more school needed to be able to move up which will further
their education in leadership.
The diverse types of NCO ranks have different responsibilities. A squad leader or sometimes referred to section leader is normally running by E–5/E–6
ranks. As stated in the ArmyStudyguied.com 'These NCOs live and work with their soldiers every day and are responsible for their health, welfare and

Abstract. This Paper Will Explore The Roles And Motivational

  • 1. Abstract. This Paper Will Explore The Roles And Motivational Abstract This paper will explore the roles and motivational factors of Commissioned Officers in the United States military. The professional leader lives and embodies the values of the organizational culture that is the military. The military is constructed upon a hierarchal organization structure composed of individuals with the yearning to lead others to the standards set in place by military ethos. The role of a commissioned officer is to embody these values in and out of uniform while also leading and mentoring those around him to result in a successful work environment. This paper will illustrate how the military maintains the high standard of a successful organization with the guidance of its commissioned officers. Keywords: ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Non–commissioned officers work in a middle management role and delegate to lower ranking soldiers. Leadership styles and the motivators used by commissioned officers influences their ability to establish a cohesive work environment. Officers are assumed to be natural born leaders and the initial enhancement of these skills are to take place during the length of their four–year degree with the guidance of The Reserve Officer's Training Corps (ROTC). ROTC broadly introduces students to different leadership styles and how to apply them to scenarios that may arise throughout the duration of their career. The instructors in an ROTC program are composed of non–commissioned officers who are enlisted soldiers that rise through the ranks and become the direct supervisors of lower enlisted soldiers. Non–commission officers can guide with the experience they possess and commissioned officers lack. Officers commission into the military with the intent to maintain a supervisorial position throughout their whole career but in various positions and ranks. In a study conducted about military leadership, Utecht and Heier(1976) refered to leadership competence as the deciding factor that moves officers among various levels in the military. Officers are expected to be multifaceted and easily adapt to the conditions and requirements of any given position. Utecht and Heier's study intended to test Fielder's contingency theory in predicting military leaders were only successful because ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

This is important to me because I had to wait for months to get it because I was too lazy to go and get it from the studio, so they send them to the school and I got it from the yearbook coordinator. 2.

Case Study: The Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps The Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps I chose the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC) as my Discourse Community Ethnography, so I could study my actions and experiences as I grow through the program, as well as uncover the difference between ROTC graduates and non–ROTC graduates of major United States (US) universities. When relating the AFROTC to John Swales' six characteristics, I was able to uncover a considerable amount of information that intrigued my interests, along with my interviews of several cadets and the commanding officer of Air Force Detachment 450, Lt.

Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... I uncovered the difference between ROTC graduates and non–ROTC graduates of major United States (US) universities, and feel that ROTC is truly beneficial for young adults looking to compete in tomorrows workforce. The constant challenge has provoked me to leave my comfort zone and explore my potential endeavors on a road of perpetual success. I truly believe that through my personal experiences in college, ROTC cadets will leave college better prepared to face the challenges of the world. While at the same time ROTC cadets will be able to outperform other university students because we have been trained in an environment of constant completion, where success is not achieved by the completion of the job but deserved by the ability to do the job better than everyone else. With that being said, ROTC cadets are also held to a higher level of respect and honor. Customs and Courtesies are expected, and codes of conduct must be followed. This higher level of respect is taught through the different genres and Lexis, and while this may sound very harsh and obsessive, I have come to enjoy the organization of the Air Force, and the respect of the various people that I work with on a daily basis. ...

  • 4. Recruitment of Child Soldiers Essay "Children belong on playgrounds, not battlegrounds. The use of child soldiers is one of the most egregious human right violations of our times" affirms Rep. Jeff Fortenberry after witnessing a human tragedy, of children who were forced into military service. Today, an estimated 300,000 children under the age 18 are participating in armed conflicts worldwide. Approximately 20 countries, including The United States of America actively recruits children under age 18. Most children soldiers range in age from 15 to 17 years old, but others as young as 7 years of age have been stationed. Because formal age documentation does not exist in many areas, children are frequently passed off as being older... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Douglas Smith, a spokesperson for the Army Reserve Command, confirms ?This provision is simply a matter of convenience, it saves the recruiters a lot of research time figuring out how to get in contact with the students.? Military recruiters have been caught telling high school students lies such as: ?The war in Iraq is over. We?re no longer sending people to Iraq . We are currently bringing the troops in Iraq back home. Once you enlist into military, if you don?t like it, you can simply quit under the ?Failure to Adapt? discharge and it won?t affect anything on your record.? Along with lying to accomplish the goal of increasing enlistments, recruiters have resorted to fabricating backgrounds and forging physical reports to ensure that the teenager qualifies for enlistment. Some recruiters have stooped so low by providing ?kidney cleaners? to help the teenagers pass urine screening for drug usage. All of these practices are inexcusable, even more alarming is the fact that high school teens are allowing themselves to be victimized by military recruiters. Military recruiters like any commissioned salesman are out to produce quotas which directly attributes to their income, the best interest of a high school teenager is never considered.

For me one goal I had in life was to serve in the United States Navy as a Submarine Officer. This dream would not come easy to accomplish since I come from a family with 6 siblings all around the same ages and all going to college. But I would not let that stop me I did my research and found the school that was perfect for me. It was the University of Oklahoma for they offered both the major I wanted to pursue, Aerospace Engineering, and gave me the opportunity to reach my goal as being an officer in the United States Navy.

Well with challenges come obstacles, for me it was finding a college that had a NROTC unit and an Aerospace Engineering program. Oklahoma instantly stuck out to me, so I took the challenge of getting accepted. Once that happened then next obstacle and challenge developed. How was I going to pay for college? Coming in as a college programmer and an out of state student I knew that this wasn't not going to be a cheap challenge, but worth it if I was given the opportunity to full fill my goal of serving in the Navy. So, I took on a student loan to allow me to begin my education at Oklahoma in their engineering program and to pursue a Naval ROTC scholarship that would pay the three remaining years of college. It ended up paying off in the end as after a year of college I would pick up a Naval ROTC scholarship, the only thing is they Navy would not go back to pay off my initial years of college putting me in debt.

  • 6. Statement Of Purpose: Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps Life is about change and change is what makes you stronger, the experience that prepared me the most for this position is when I began my high school JROTC (Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps) career. Over the summer I had moved from Virginia to Boston and because of the different requirements in each state, I had taken classes earlier at my old school. My new school did not have a band class so instead, I decided to join JROTC as I was unable to do at my old school. When I began the class, I saw that it was a leadership course and the more dedicated students went after school to learn drill and ceremony. These more dedicated students were the ones that had the opportunity to earn higher ranks. As a person, I was always shy so going into ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 7. Characteristics Of A Discourse Community At the beginning of this semester I decided to join Montana State University's Army ROTC program with no prior knowledge of the program other than it will pay for my tuition. When the school year started I realized very quickly that this was a very strict and structured community. We are required to be at school at 0600 four days a week, attend mandatory weekend trainings, and volunteer in the community. Thankfully when something is done consecutively it just becomes habit. This research is derived from my personal drive to figure out if the Army ROTC is an accurate depiction of a discourse community. In an excerpt from Writing about Writing, John Swales does a profound job in describing six unique characteristics of a discourse community; however, I believe that the two fundamental characteristics that define the Army ROTC as a discourse community are "a broadly agreed set of common public goals" (Swales 220), and "a threshold level of members with a suitable degree of relevant content and discoursal expertise" (Swales 222). These two characteristics not only depict a discourse community but also describe a department that effectively develops young men and women to their full potential as leaders. The current generation of young students, friends, workers, and leaders are chained down by the reoccurring problem of "the easy way out". Searching the internet for material that past generations worked hard for, researched books, and took notes on is offensive in my point of ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 8. Why Am I Here Why are You Here?" I have fallen short in many ways towards the goals that I have made in my life. No matter how high the standard is set, and whether failure awaits me, perseverance and my faith will carry me on. Some would label me as a dreamer. Someone could say I have reality to face, but without dreams we have no hope, and without hope we have nothing inside of us to fuel our deep passion to succeed and win the race that we have been running. Everyone has his own opinion about college and how important it is, but only a few will take the initiative to follow through and back what they stand for.

Through four and a half months of training in technical school, they were able to mold me into what they expect in the ordinance branch. So far, this has been an amazing experience, and I am proud of being a small part of the big picture. With that said, I am here for one reason and one reason only. I no longer have my parents ' direction, or have someone showing me what is right, and I would be wrong in making my time here meaningless. Many of my peers would say this is one big party and that they are here for the girls and the cheap beer, but if I wanted to party, I wouldn 't have chosen to pay so much for one. I think it would be ridiculous of me to waste a perfectly good opportunity to become the man that I was made to be. My past was unbalanced and reckless, and it would be easy for me to fall back into my old ways, so it would be wise of me to stay focused while I am here. My life was very structured and it drove me to want something different, but when I had to face my consequences, I soon came to want exactly what I was running from. Ironically enough, I am beginning to see what they were trying to do as parents. It would be nice to finally make them proud to be an influence in my life, and I will do my best to make that happen.

  • 9. College Reflection There are many discourse communities that we participate in life, one of the mine was J.R.O.T.C or Junior reserve officer training corps. The point of the program was to promote young people to be better citizens. I felt I exemplified these point as I participated in teams, was a leader in the classroom and a staff member in the program. I Throughout the program, cadets were encouraged to join the after school activities known as teams, which consisted of Drill, Rifle, Colorguard, and, P.T ( Physical Training). I joined my freshman year and I was active in the unarmed/armed drill and P.T team throughout all of my years ofhigh school. Drill consisted of memorizing sequences with and without rifles to perfection and adding in showmanship for flare, as with P.T, it mostly consisted of strenuous exercise to get myself to peak physical condition. I went to many events because of these teams, we participated in drill meets where battalions of JROTC competed against each other for the top spot at each event.

Since then, more than 1,700 units have been created in the Army branch alone. I will be focusing on Blackman High School's JROTC which was founded in 2000.

The two instructors consist of a retired officer known as the Senior Army Instructor (SAI) and a retired enlisted known as the Army Instructor (AI). There is no application process as students simply sign up for the class during registration. The program is organized like the United States Army, with squads, platoons, and companies...

From acronyms such as LET (Leadership Education Training) to phrases such as "double time" (to run instead of walk), JROTC's own literacy is vital to effectively communicate in a brief amount of time. I investigated how cadets' communication evolved while they were in JROTC and how they used word of mouth to achieve the program's goals. Colonel Spry mentions that cadets' discussions when they first start out in the program are not very serious in nature, but as they grow and move up in the program they begin to mature and have thoughtful discussions on how to solve a problem and what kind of plan it would take to resolve it. Lacuniak states that one of the ways cadets learn leadership is by knowing how to effectively communicate through a chain of command and how to talk to superiors. She also says that cadets learn communication and critical thinking skills from lessons taught by the instructors. These are the ways that cadets achieve one of the program's goals by enhancing leadership, communication, and critical thinking skills as well as contribute to the overall ...

  • 11. Reflection Paper "Because transition is a process by which people unplug into a new world, we can say that transition starts with an ending and finishes with a beginning." In many ways the previous quote relations to my transition of transferring from Saint Peter's University to UNC Charlotte. I had to "unplug" from many things in both my academic and personal life, as a result of, transferring to another school. For me "unplugging" means leaving or disconnecting to what you are used to. Something I had to unplug from was living in New Jersey and being in the Saint Peter's University environment. I lived in New Jersey for much of my childhood before I lived in Maryland, so when I decided to go to college in New Jersey it was like I was returning home. Going to Saint Peter's University was great, but being there made me unplug from something very important to me; my family. My family moved to North Carolina right before I started college. They were in North Carolina and I was in New Jersey, which meant we were ten hours away from each other. For a whole year, I didn't really see my family much. I only saw them on longer school breaks and eventually, that started to play a negative toll on me emotionally. Before things got really bad I took initiative and started applying for schools in North Carolina. When I got accepted into UNC Charlotte I was happy because I could be closer to my family, but I knew that I was going to have to unplug once again. Now I am unplugging again but this time from ...

  • 12. The Goals of Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps Popular Value? There are a number of eminent boons associated with the Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (JROTC), a program which is offered as an elective at public high schools across the nation. However, many of these positives do not directly correlate to academic achievement. An explanation of this fact partially stems from the very nature of the program as an elective, it is limited in the amount of educational value it can impart to students, which is certainly lesser than that of the value afforded students via daily coursework offered in standard classes. Importantly, the public funds of the JROTC make it a viable option for students in light of regulations regarding federal and state regulations limitations mandated by 1995's Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (Dilger and Bess, 2008, p. 1). Yet a thorough analysis of this program, which includes the Navy JROTC as well as that relating to the Army, Air Force and Marines, indicates that the positives associated with this program include both tangible and intangible aspects, which rewards America's high school students both during and after their postsecondary careers. In order to determine the degree of efficacy the JROTC produces within the lives of its students, it is first necessary to elucidate the history of this program, which was implemented on a nationwide level in 1916 yet had individual components as far back as the latter portion of the 19the century (Pema and Mehay, 2009, p. 533).

  • 33. Although I grew up in a military family, I never saw... Although I grew up in a military family, I never saw myself going into a military career. Up until I was about fourteen years old, I planned on being a marine biologist in Hawaii. Sounds nice, right? Well, at the end of my eighth grade year I decided that I might as well join NJROTC, because all of my friends were doing it and it seemed okay. I have to say, looking back, I was quite naive. Joining NJROTC was the smartest and most valuable decision I have made to this day. As a freshman, I was timid and had little to noconfidence. When I went to my first drill practice, I felt like I was in my element. Everyone there wanted to be there, they all joined NJROTC because they wanted to.

Being a platoon commander, I had to make eighteen individuals have the mindset of a team, in order to prepare them for Annual Military Inspection. This worked to the utmost degree, because we passed our Annual Military Inspection and were recognized as an distinguished unit with academic honors, and we were the Area Four Most Outstanding Unit. Knowing that I was apart of achieving this honor is the most overwhelming feeling of accomplishment. This showed me that I was growing into someone who could change a group of individuals into a team, and that was something I could have never imagined before NJROTC. This skill would be put to it's ultimate test the coming summer, when I was chosen to go back to Area Four Leadership Academy/Sail Training as a platoon aide for Gold Platoon. At the end of those two weeks, I turned 38 cadets into one team, and that team was the overall Honor Platoon, and won five out of the seven competitive events at LA/ST. Now, as a senior, I had to face a more difficult choice, college. I applied for both the AROTC and NROTC scholarships, with hopes that I would receive at least one. About a week before Thanksgiving, I received an email from the US Army Cadet Command, stating "Congratulations, you have been awarded and AROTC Scholarship". Immediately, I started shaking and tears began to fill me eyes. This was the sign that all of my hard work and growth had paid off. For three years I had ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

One of my favorite classes to take in high school was Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps or (JROTC).

  • 40. Rivercrest Jrotc Program Analysis Rivercrest High School has a great Jrotc program. Rivercrest Jrotc program has been running for 24 years. Jrotc is all about service to others. It's all about helping people and the community out. Service to others could be replying to a service learning project or community service. Service to others could be as simple as picking up a piece of trash in your neighbor's yard. The best quote I ever heard about service to others is by Mahatma Gandhi.

The mission of Jrotc is to motivate young people to become better citizens. The Jrotc lessons that helped me prepare for service to others are leadership, citizenship, organization, and last but not least, teamwork. Leadership has to have a great leader who knows how to lead, and listen. A leader has to be able to want to help others, and plan when to do a project to help others. To become a better citizen, you have to have great citizenship. Being a citizen is all about helping and giving service to others. Everyone needs help once in awhile. If you are giving service to others, you have to be organized. Organization is knowing when you are going to help, who is going to help, and why you are going to help. You have to be organized, in order to help others. Organization is the key to success in giving service to others. Last, but not least teamwork is important. Teamwork is all about getting a group of people and cooperating together. It would be more effective if a team helped give service to others, other than just one person. There is no I in team. In order to have great teamwork, and really give service to others, everyone has to have a role or play a part. If everyone works together, teamwork will never fail. These are the lessons that makes service to others so important. In participating in service to others, I learned that service to others is very important.
