On Monday organisers of the conference of the West Point Military Academy invited some of the top war historians from the United States to talk about and discuss war endings in front of an audience of around 20 military students and officers from the academy’s history department. Everything was filmed and there will be some essays written so teachers can use this debate in their classrooms as study material.

Because of these kinds of lectures and discussions, students learn things like the fact that the American military goes unprepared to war but that this is not the real problem. The real problem is that they are deep in war for 7 to 8 years right now and ending the war is starting to become a big issue. But than again the question arises how to stop the war. You can stop your involvement in a war, but can you do this when you started it?

They discussed different wars, from the American Revolution to the first Gulf War. And even though the Iraq and Afghanistan wars weren’t planned, they were never far away from everyone’s minds.

It was an interesting session and students learned a lot. The historians know what they are talking about and it was a good place to discuss a difficult subject.

This year the United States Army will be performing their duty for 235 years. This is why hundreds of people gathered last weekend at The Holiday Resort in Tumon for the annual Army Ball. During this ball there was a slide show organized to honor the fallen soldiers from Guam. The goal of this event was to reunite the soldiers so they can build up a solid relationship with each other furthermore Guam soldiers got recognition and soldiers could talk about their fallen battle buddies.

So the main goal wasn’t celebrating the 235th anniversary of the army but showing respect to the soldiers, let them know that their efforts are appreciated and that we all think about their fallen friends.

Representative Chet Edwards of Texas state met and the three young children of fallen Marine Gunnery Sgt. John David Fry during the tearful Veteran Day ceremony at Waco last year but Edward was very much concern about the family condition especially toward the children welfare and educational setting due the mere fact that there father are not longer there to support them. With that, Edward realize that there was something else that he can be done in order to support the family of Fry and to the other military heroes and that can be done through supporting the educational learning of their children especially upon foregoing a college education. With the major benefit increase of GI, Edwards inserted some provision for the supplemental appropriations bill for the House and Senate that been approve for the last past week. Since, the president is expecting to sign it as soon as possible in order for the children who have lost their parent soldiers be provided a full support of assurance that they can finish their college education or any career building course program.

Those military family especially wife and children who have lost their father and husband in the line of the battle eases up their pain when they know that they government especially the military department will provide continual assistance or support particularly towards the educational condition of the young children who have been left behind and to job employment to the wives who have left behind taking care of their children. Although, the lost of a family member is not easy to handle but still with the different support both emotional and to some practical things, it eases up the pain of separation of lost. The bill in regards of providing educational support towards the military children receives positive and overwhelming results from the different government officials especially in Texas State for its approval.

Representative Edwards stated that under this bill, children with the fallen military parents would entirely qualify immediately for GI bill educational benefit or considered as one of the student financial aid that includes the tuition and fees of the maximum of in state costs at this public institution in the state with the monthly housing allowance and $1,000 annual for the books and its educational supplies.

As of now, global crises are already at hand. In which, there are several individuals who loses their jobs because of company closure or laying off employees in order to utilize the employees, save more budget, and entirely save the companies situation from falling down that might lead to closure. Although that was the case for several civilian individuals, here in the United States especially in the State of Georgia several Georgians young learners entered into the different military schools and academies in the country with the full support from their parents of attaining a military career jobs in the future. Since, both parents and learners are very much assured that this military schools or academies will be a good preparation for them to venture in the field of military career in the future. At this point of time, parents have seen that military department or armed forces in the country is beginning to become a safe haven for economic stability. As a result, it can be observe that there are several young men and women who forego this type of career despite the responsibilities that it entails.

According to the Army recruiter in the country, even though the country is experiencing economic difficulties but the military field of education, training and offices are still in good condition of expanding its members or cadets. Since, more young men and women see the good condition and financial stability that armed forces that will serve as a safe haven for their career development. Especially that there are several companies who have lost their jobs or experience downsized in their career move due to the effect that been brought by the global economic crises. Based on the Pentagon report, it had seen that theirs already an increase of cadets enrollees in the different military schools, academies and of the different branches of armed forces in the country. As a result, it meet the recruitment goal percentage that been set by the different branches or department of armed forces in the country with the conviction of producing high quality military soldiers in the future and beyond. Especially now, that the different branches of military academies usually accept cadets that got an aptitude test result at least 50 out from the possible 99 score of the entrance exam in applying in most of the military academies in the country.

For so long, the military occupation have become as one of the leading employment here in the United States due to its career development and the need of the country. Although, this type of occupation entails lots of responsibilities but still several young individuals are responsive to forego this type of career. One of the people who are known for their military services is the Army National Guard Spec. Gregory J. Marcotte. This young man has already served the military services for several years. Just recently of this month, he has returned to the 2nd Battalion of the 18th Infantry Regiment in Gloversville after for several years of being deployed in overseas countries in support of the mission of Operation Enduring Freedom. Marcotte graduated in Corinth Central Military Boarding School in the country.

As Marcotte returned to the 2nd Battalion of 18th Infantry Regiment, a ceremony of transition command of Gloversville to the central New York base together with its military soldiers was also celebrated. This includes the Infantry Soldiers of 2nd Battalion together with the 108th Infantry, CBRNE and CERFP. The CBRNE stands as the New York’s Army National Guard’s Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear High Yield Explosive. On the other hand CERFP stands for Enhanced Response Force Package. Both this New York group and the military soldiers of Gloversville join together in celebrating the transition of command and recognizing the contribution that Gloversville soldiers had made towards the military department such as allowing themselves to be trained for fully yielded military education and services that comes from military schools or academies in Gloversville. As well, for allowing their selves to be more open to a higher military continuing education training in order to be prepared for another level of responsibility and give out a quality services to its field of function.

Part of this ceremony is the awarding of medals to the local soldiers who have completed their mission as part of the CERFP element such as Sgt. Scott T. Dingman, Sgt. Ronald W. Spanton, and Sgt. Michael Lynch. These local soldiers that have received the awards were been evaluated, recommended, and appointed by Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Even though that the economic status of the country here in the United Status are not that stable but still the recruitment of military cadets are still one of the priority of the government in the country. Since, military soldiers and personnel’s are very much important in preserving the security system of the country. In that case, the government provides a large amount of budget in order to financially support the educational training for the military cadets in the different military schools or academies in the country. Aside of the budget fund that been provided for the military cadets, the different military departmental branches in the country also provided a large amount or fund for the recruitment of newly military soldiers or personnel’s to be part of their military offices. This is very much evident as of now, that the Pentagon keeps on recruiting and attracting military cadets or young individuals to be part of the different military branches or offices.

Last week the figures about the trends of military career education and jobs become more appealing as the elect President takes its office in the Washington D.C. Although, President Barack Obama pledge its campaign to pull out the all the combat forces in Iraq and drop all the violence that happen there but still he also stated to put some additional forces in Afghanistan for more security measures. In the Army department, they target about hundreds or thousands of young individuals that will meet the qualification standards of the department but they just received 750 individuals who signed and meet the basic qualification of the academy. In the Navy, they receive around 2,306 individuals who also meet the qualification standard of this academy while the Marine Corps academy gained 2,392 signed up. On the other hand, the Air Force has gained a sign in of 2,967.

Although, the functions that awaits to the young individuals to become military soldier entails lots of responsibilities but still there are several young individuals who pursue it. All the more the different branches of military department in the country strengthens their support to this newly cadets and military graduates through the presence of quality education program, competitive salaries, and job skills for civilian military personnel’s. The different military officials are expecting that the quality of military troops will remain high regardless to the economic status of the country.

Funding is not a hindrance to success and this has been proven many times over by many people that succeed in life even through meager budgets. This only goes to show that even with a little budget the show must go on no matter what. The success is sweeter when you are faced with challenges before achieving it.

This situation is also true with the cadets of the Francis Marion Military Academy. They have continued their marching and other activities despite budget cuts – because they are the so-called eagles that want to soar high. Career education for them is very important and they can continue dreaming even with very limited funds.

Just recently, four cadets discussed homework assignments on mathematics and world history and sat a picnic table. This, despite of the fact that they knew of the situation of organizers and volunteers having a hard times coping with financial crisis that is also now shaking the budget of the school as well as on the student’s career education.

Legislators knew that the economic downturn is challenging them in which they headed to Tallahassee this week purposely and conducted thorough discussion in the school’s shrinking finances. It was known that this year an estimated shortfall of the state is estimated to reach $2.3 billion. Lawmakers are now looking for the solution to minimize budget deficits before the economy could rebound in April of 2010 according to economic analysts.

Unfortunately for the Marion County Public Schools a shortfall close to $40 million is also seen to challenge legislators. This is also the main reason why the budget shortfall of schools also came. It is reported that the military academy which has been receiving $23,000 in monthly checks is now dwindling to only $18,000. It was also reported that even a boarding school is also faced with this kind of dilemma.

Col. Martha Cieplinki, school’s director also feared that another cut of 20 percent will be made again soon that would also reduce it to $3,000 from the present $15,000. As a matter of fact, Cieplinski said to be able to control the continued reduction they are now considering of applying for a $250,000 grant for school year 2009-2010.
