My second key strength is showing gratitude to others. If someone does something for me or helps me develop a new skill. I show gratitude to them
by thanking them, and I tell them that really appreciate their help. I am there for that person when they need my help.
Furthermore, I'm intellectually curious and I'm persistent when it comes to something, which I'm interested in. For example, for my expository
writing I had to write a ten page research paper. When the time came for me to pick a topic, I decide to write about autism cause one of my cousin have
been diagnosed with autism. Likewise, I never thought what was it is to live with an autistic person. So when started to write my paper, I decide to
come up with the basic questions such as: what is autism and there a cure for it? By time I conclude my paper, I was persistent to find the answers
and I was able understand what my cousin and his family were going thougth. Whereas, in the Honors Program I will

What Is Honor To Me
To me honor is the privilege of having the opportunity to serve in the United States Navy and to be a part of one of the strongest military forces in the
world. It is being a well–trained and disciplined sailor. One who is capable and confident in swiftly carrying out orders. It is taking responsibility
for what must be done whatever the cost. Following orders and commitment to excellence instills in me a feeling of pride and honor. Courage is the
ability to stay true to my values and beliefs and to act correspondingly. It is the ability to say and do the right thing without reservation in the face of
adversity. Courage is placing the value of the whole before the self and to always be prepared for new challenges in times of uncertainty.

Honor Courage And Commitment In The Military
My time in the military has taught a thing or two about Honor, Courage, and Commitment. I believe it ties into the results of my VIA character
profile, and the top five that I chose really is who I am as a person, and how I always strive for every day. Ever since I decided to sign my life away
to serve my country, it definitely took a whole lot of courage or in this case "bravery" apparently one of my strong characteristics. August 2004 was
the date when I had to learn to be brave; even though my father was in the service at the time he never told me what it was all about to be in his
shoes. My father always told me "son you have to figure it out and find out for yourself", at the time I just thought it was something secret he couldn't
tell...show more content...
Things that I really had no knowledge about, but like a robot I did as I was told. So it would be fitting that "Judgement" would be a high character
point for me. I really had to think things through before I acted upon them, or it would sometimes come back to bight me in the long run. When I
got to my first command I did not learn what "leadership" was till I actually strived to become one. For over a year and a half I was always just a
follower, doing what I was told and never really branching off or blazing my own path. I achieved many promotions since then, now I don't know
who said it first but my higher ups always preached saying "leaders lead from the front not from the back" and I agree. I learned how interact with
different types of people with many different backgrounds, so having "social intelligence" is key to being able to engage with people from different
walks of life. I had learned how people reacted to certain things I said allowing me to make changes in how I approached them with issues and or work

Honor courage and commitment
Throughout History The Marine Corps has had a very long and distinguished history of their remarkable service to the world. Marines have been known
to uphold the highest moral character with or without having their uniforms on. From that, their foundation of Honor, Courage and Commitment
becomes indisputable and very evident in every single Marine.The three Corps Values: honor, courage, commitment make up the bedrock of the
character of each individual Marine. They are the foundation of his Corps. These three values, handed down from generation to generation, have made

and others, maintain a high standards of integrity, support and defend the constitution, uphold special trust and confidence, pace faith and honor
above all else, and to honor fellow Marines, the Corps,country, and family. When it comes to being a person in general one can never add enough to

Navy Core Values Essay
Imagine someone being out to sea for eight months, and them having their only towel or shower shoes stolen from them. As Senior Enlisted Leaders,
we should understand that a deceitful man is no different than a thief and both contradict the Navy's Core Values. Integrity and honesty are essential
characteristics of every sailor because the Navy is built on trust and comradery. This essay will examine the Navy's ultimate deceit; discuss how this one
man's actions contradicted the Navy's Core Values, and the importance of honesty and integrity within the Navy. Commander Michael Ward II was
appointed commander of the USS Pittsburgh, which was stationed in Connecticut. A week after taking command, Ward was relieved of his duties

Navy sailors stand by their core values of honor, courage, and commitment. According to the Navy Ethos, integrity is understood as the foundation of a
sailor's conduct; integrity is the attribute of being honest (Merriam Webster's Dictionary). Integrity fits into two core values, which are honor and
commitment. Furthermore, sailors do not waver in their commitment to their families. Commander Ward showed no honor or ethical morals when
making the decisions he made. In addition to not showing honor, Ward showed no commitment to his wife. Commitment can be defined as a promise
to be faithful and devoted (Merriam Webster's Dictionary). The Navy Ethos discusses the importance of not wavering in the dedication towards
shipmates or family (Navy Ethos). Ward was not dedicated to his wife who he swore to protect and be faithful to, which is no different than the
country he swore to protect and be faithful to when entering the Navy. Now that I have discussed how the ultimate deceit contradicted the Navy's Core
Values; this paper will provide a recommendation of how to keep the integrity and honesty essential characteristics of every

It is unjust for us (as Marines) to do any such acts. A lot of these if not all, fall under the Uniform code of Military Justice (UCMJ) such as Articles 92,
98, 104, 107, 121–128, 131,134, and 137. I cannot name them all but in my opinion articles 78–140 in a nutshell. If you are unsure if something you
say or do will fall under any of the Articles of the UCMJ, then ask your higher up or your chain of command. Do not be that one to do an act and
then say, "Oh I didn't know", then blame your NCO's or chain of command for not informing you because you did not ask. Perfect examples of
falling into any of these categories could be something as simple as not giving your command the common courtesy to stand up and give the proper
greeting of the day when they come in, not getting a proper haircut or not informing your chain of command when something new happens. Worst
one yet: telling your command you will do something or not do it, and then go against what you said. If you are guilty of any of these actions and
someone has not corrected you, then, you need to immediately correct yourself. Do not think someone before you has not made the same mistakes
that you have! This is the reason we have briefs. Reason being is because someone has done it before already, so, there are rules and regulations in
place to prevent such actions. What they do not tell you, as well as what I personally failed to realize, was that your

Honor Courage And Commitment Analysis
Honor, Courage, and Commitment are not just values I learned in boot camp. They are the guiding principles and morale's that were instilled in me
by my grandfather as a child and by my faith as an adult. Being privileged to the role of a naval officer its essential, that we not only understand these
values but that they become our way of life.
For over 200 years naval officers have been commissioned to make decisions that can risk, endanger, and even save lives, all while ensuring the safety
and security of the United States. It takes great honor to support and defend the country that serves freedom to its citizens. Having honor is living true
to oneself. It requires difficult decisions that are honest, true, and ethical both personally and

The Navy's Core Values of Honor, Courage and Commitment are the principles that all Naval personnel must engrave into our hearts and minds. We
must encompass these values and live by them in order to succeed both personally and professionally.

input to superiors while making decisions without regard to personal consequence.

US Navy Honor, Courage, And Commitment
Honor, Courage, and Commitment are the back bone to the U.S. Navy they infuse the Navy with a living life blood an unfaultable force. Honor to
me is associated with pride not the seven deadly sins pride, but more like taking a personal ownership in all that you do so that you present your
absolute best every time. As an officer this is the standard that should be strived for and extended upon; the taking of ownership not only of tasks,
but the well being of your sailors as well. Courage to me has many forms it could be that sailor/soldier who gets a soft whisper in their ear that tells
them to enlist so they can stand on the front lines to protect others, or the kid who takes his and others fears and takes a stand against the playground

I have an example of how these core values are truly with–in my believes, on February 23, 2008 while in the Newport News shipyard, I was on the
berthing barge around 0800 in the morning when I heard a splash in the water coming from the ship next to us. Unfortunately, the splash was a
shipyard worker who had fallen though a plenum "This is a hole in the ship used for the mooring line" Without hesitating I took my boots of and
jump in. not knowing the water temperature was 36 degrees. I swam 80 of the 100 yards to get to him and all a can see the entire time was this
man struggling for his life going up and down in the water trying to stay on top. Around ten yards away I look into his eyes just before he went
down for the last time. I made it to the location he was at and began to swim down to try and locate him but to no avail the water in that area was
so murky and the visibility was around two feet in front of me. Devastated that I was unable to save him and the adrenalin that was going through me
keep me from realizing that I was now in big trouble myself, the temperature of the water was now effecting my body and I started to loose all feeling
from my neck to my feet. After swimming so far and exhausting myself looking for this man, I could no longer make the swim around the aircraft

Essay on The Value of Honor
The Value of Honor There is a priceless respect that everyone in the world possesses, and that is the respect of a person's honor. A person's honor is
something that can not be bought, sold, or traded it's something that must be gained by the respect of your peers. An example of how honor is seen in
everyday life in through a persons word. A persons honor is supported by their word, and if they do not uphold their word then they are left with
nothing. To try and explain the personal trait of honor is something that can not be done in a few words, or a sentence. I feel as though honor is made
up of different combinations of personal traits depending on the individual. Some of these characteristics of honor can...show more content...
The medal of honor was first awarded during the civil war in the year 1861. Since the medal of honor's creation there has been some 3,400 medals
awarded to the different divisions of the armed forces. Until this day there has only been one woman who has received this honor for her service.
During World War II there was a black medal of honor awarded for extraordinary heroism in the face of combat. The next instance that I feel honor
plays a big role in is in the presidency of The
United States of America. This is probably the greatest honor that anyone could obtain in the United States of America. When our president is looked
upon as controlling the most powerful country in the world they are looked up to as the strength that makes us a world power. Even in situations
where a person who did not vote for the individual that becomes elected to the presidential office, there is an unspoken bond that brings all
Americans together as a whole. In such instances as this I feel as though there is more reverence, and respect for the president than there is for any
other elected official in the
United States. The honor that develops over time in a friendship is one that should never be toyed around with. A good example of this would be two
friends losing their friendship because of a woman. A friend is someone that you can trust, someone who's word means something, and a friend is
someone that you should not have to question

Njrotc Core Values
When you think of the united states, what words come to mind. The average person would suggest words such as diversity, freedom, and
independence. However, in this sense, I am not average. When I think of the united states, I think of words honor, courage, and commitment.
When I first entered the NJROTC program, the core values of honor, courage, and commitment, where some of the first things I learned and
they've been an important part of my life ever since. Being a member of this program help me to understand that as a response to uphold these
principles in some way. The word honor means to view something with high respect or esteem. As a citizen, you should honor something or
someone who represents or serves your country every day. You show Honor, or respect for your country, when you say the pledge of allegiance in
school or hold the door open for a veteran when out in public. Before joining this program I did not have a really clear idea of what the military did.
I did not think twice when I saw someone wearing a world war or Vietnam veterans ball cap. I knew we had a military and that they wore uniforms but
that was about it. Being in the program...show more content...
The word courage can be interpreted and acted upon In a variety of ways. The average citizen shows courage when they speak for their own beliefs
and/or the beliefs of their country, by challenging the status quo, or by joining the armed forces. You should never live in or represent a country
that you can not have pride in and stand up for. Our armed forces work hard every day to ensure that we continue to live in the free and liberated
country we know and love. There are thousands of soldiers fighting overseas, going through basic training, or being separated from their families,
fighting for their beliefs and ours too. The least we could do is be courageous enough to carry the home front, speak up for our country and our rights,
and allow no one to degrade us as a
