  • Military School Policy Essay

    499 Words  | 2 Pages

    From within, the Navy’s bureaucracy is seldom questioned. Understandably, its culture largely influences the life of a midshipman at the Naval Academy. The experience in Annapolis is anchored in four years of stringent academic and fitness requirements; the latter is emphasized for its importance in leading during times of harsh conditions. While the Academy expects its 4,576 midshipmen to excel physically, for 172 years it did not provide an optimal foundation upon which to do so. An official, longstanding policy has never been established to allow midshipmen to leave the small, enclosed campus through convenient gates located near the dormitory to conduct exercise, largely reducing the student body’s morale.

It wasn't until 2005 when I decided to join the United States Army that all my concerns and questions were answered by a recruit; and I was guided through the whole process to enter and prep for the Army. If it was not for the confidences and motivation of my recruiter back in 2005, I might have not made my leap and probably would not be in this uniform today. Becoming a member of the United States Army recruiting team means having a physical and mental toughness in order to perform efficiently.
