Why would someone want to join the United States Navy? Well the Navy has great reasons on why people should join. The navy can help build someone’s future because the navy puts in work to help get that person a job or the education they need to do that job. They navy lets people travel to other parts of the world that the average person does not get to see. The navy also lets people meet new people and become friends. They navy can help build new skills like how to take a gun apart, clean it and put it back together, they also teach people how to extinguish fires (Navy Recruiting Command). The navy has over three hundred twenty- three thousand active duty sailors (Chief of Information). The navy gives people many benefits during and after retirement. After someone has been in the Navy for twenty years they will receive retirement pay for the rest of their life (Gannett). The Navy also provides people with health care. If someone is to choose the Navy Reserve they will still receive the same navy benefits. The navy will also help get someone a job or finish their education, because the navy emphasizes on the education someone will receive after the navy. When someone is an active duty sailor they get paid and don’t have to pay for a house and other bill that the average person has to pay (Navy Recruiting Command). When someone is an active duty sailor they will receive thirty vacation days a year (SWCC Scout Team). The navy focuses a lot on the fitness of the sailors; the navy has an eight week boot camp to become in shape. Active duty sailors stay in shape by playing sports or doing weekly workouts. All recruits need to increase their flexibility (Navy Recruiting Command). In the navy not all the jobs get the same pay some get... ... middle of paper ... ...ly dangerous weapons. These men carry out these missions to make the world a better, more safe place (Navy Recruiting Command). The navy is a place for everyone, where someone can meet all kinds of new people and get to go to new places all the time. The navy has jobs or roles for everyone not just for the few and the proud.

One of the main benefits about working at Old Navy is the flexible hours. The management at Old Navy understands that many of its employees are students that work part-time. For this reason, they make the scheduling flexible for all employees. Old Navy is a great place for college students as management tries to work around your classes. Also if sometimes comes up and a person is not able to work, the administration will do its best to get another employee to cover the shift in advance. Old Navy also accommodates employees who have illnesses or medical emergencies. These are only so...

The Army National Guard is a whole new way to serve. It’s all about commitment to help communities in need. It’s solid dedication to the country in war and in peace. They form an elite team that shares similar core values, convictions, and beliefs. To be in the National Guard can mean serving the country part-time, one weekend a month and two weeks a year as most Guard members serve. This is what makes them different from the other branches of the military. Experiences will be gained that would change one’s outlook on life forever. Skills will be learned that will last a lifetime. The Guard is a team that values serving others and being the best; a part-time job with full time benefits.

The United States Navy Recruiting Command (NRC) consists of 26 Navy Recruiting Districts (NRDs) spread out throughout the Continental United States. One of the largest Recruiting Districts is NRD San Diego, which consists of 55 recruiting stations spread out throughout San Diego, Riverside, Orange County, Las Vegas, Nevada, and Yuma Arizona. The obvious mission is to recruit men and women to join the United States Navy. According to NRC webpage (2015), their mission is to “recruit the best men and women for America's Navy to accomplish today's missions and meet tomorrow's challenges” (pr. 1), Obviously, NRD San Diego shares the same mission, but there are different set of unique challenges, which trickle up from each recruiting station. Having completed a three year recruiting tour assigned to one of the local San Diego area
The NJROTC, or Naval Junior Recruit Officer Training Corpse, is built not only to teach high school students about the navy but also allows student to become our great leaders of the future. In NJROTC cadets are asked to live up to very high standards because those students in NJROTC are thought of as the best of the best and are at that school to represent the military way of life. In this program I have learned three traits that will help me better myself not only in the future but in the day I live today. These traits that I speak of are discipline, punctuality, and respect. If not for NJROTC I would have not been as great a person and would have little or no direction in my life.
For years I have aspired to become a part of an elite organization such as the military, and more importantly, the United States Navy. Its reputation for instilling high moral character was encouragement for me to develop into a more mature, responsible, and independent young citizen. There are certain qualities that an officer must possess such as: honor, courage, commitment, and attention to duty, responsiveness to orders, cooperation, loyalty, leadership, integrity, and discipline. Throughout my high school career, I showcased these qualities while an active member of The American Legion of Ohio Buckeye Boy’s State, The National Honor Society, as a leader in the Ohio State Highway Patrol Junior Cadets, Clay and Waite High School Marching Band Alumni, Quiz Bowl, and Top Ten Scholars. I was actively involved in charitable activities such as Math and SOS tutoring, community volunteering, and the Indian 100 Leadership Team, (a volunteer organization on my high school campus). I have shown strength, perseverance and leadership in my participation in wrestling, cheerleading, and bodybui...
"Discipline, heart, Attention to detail and pride"are all qualities that Timothy feelsare nessacary to being a Marine.The Marines are the toughest branch of the military. They break you down and build you back up. It requires strength, endurance, and determination. Everyone is not tmade for the Marines because it is both a physical and mental challenge. You have to be able to take instruction and follow them apprioatley. You have to me Marine quality."
At a young age I knew I wanted to be just like my father (who is now a retired Chief in the United States Navy and has served 27 years.) My dad constantly tells me to this day make sure you take care of the ones you work with because their welfare is what really matters. Although you might have to yell at them every once in a while, you can never forget that they will always count on you for everything. You never want them to be scared of you where they cannot talk to you, but where they know the limit that they can talk to you about anything and when work needs to get done it will get done. Growing up my dad always took care of his sailors whether if hes throwing them a BBQ or having them come over for a home cooked meal. I understood very early that the military isnt about just ...
The United States Navy management style is extremely different from that on One Smooth Stone. The Navy works in an Administrative/Bureaucracy management style. There is a well defined hierarchy with formal rules and a understandable division in the labor force that is very impersonally and has the career based on the worth of the individual. At times the Navy tries to make its sailors believe they have a vested interest in the job and they all contribute to the overall job accomplishment. But in reality they show how everybody is expandable and replaceable with minimum effect on the
Furthermore, service academies provide once in a life time opportunities to attain top of the line education while guaranteeing you with a job as an officer upon graduation. This suits me perfectly because I aspire to become an officer in the Military. Serving our country isn’t for the hesitant. I’m more than willing to put my life on the line to protect my country. Robert Greenleaf once said, "Good leaders must first become good servants." Attending a service academy will teach me to be a good follower so that I can be a good leader in the
... much faster work pace environment. The position required me to attend many military courses and I’ve conducted real live missions and gained important tactical skills from each experiences. I would encourage any Chemical Operation Specialist in the Army to be a part of these units at some point in their career. It stands to benefit them in their career and help them to become a better rounded soldier.
Going into the military isn’t all bad because you can learn all the stuff that American soldiers go through to protect America. We could learn not to take what they do lightly or for granted. Being in the military could be helpful if another country ever decided to try to invade America. No other country would want to invade a country where every man or woman that is there is trained for almost any situation. Not that many people would worry about break-ins or someone mugging them in an alley if everyone had discipline. There's no reason as to why able men and woman shouldn't be obliged to serve their country in times of warfare crisis and/or be prepared for hypothetical wartime. Not only that, but it provides a great amount of benefits, such as: physical conditioning, mental toughening and a chance to help promote equality between young men and women. There are so many immature, feeble-minded, snobbish people in the US nowadays who need to be taught a lesson or two
On the other hand, the military lifestyle carries much more responsibility than the civilian lifestyle. There is always the threat of heading into a combat zone and having to risk your life. You have to be on time to work, there are no "I got stuck in traffic" excuses. You must always be well-groomed, and live up to the working and presentation standards of your specific military branch. You never have the option of saying "no" or just quitting
When I first got to college I needed a way to pay for school, so I enlisted in the Army Reserves and was shipped out to basic combat training. At basic combat training I learned of the differences between an officer and an enlisted soldier. I had a phenomenal company commander who was a ROTC cadet who told me all about the program and the responsibilities of an officer. Once I returned from basic combat training I got in contact with the recruiter for UAB ROTC and joined the program. These decisions helped me pay for college, a big reason I initialed joined the Army.
