    Five years after his December, 2000, arrival, Chief Executive Robert L. Nardelli is putting his stamp on what was long a decentralized, entrepreneurial business under founders Bernie Marcus and Arthur Blank. And if his company starts to look and feel like an army, that's the point. Nardelli loves to hire soldiers. In fact, he seems to love almost everything about the armed services. The military, to a large extent, has become the management model for his entire enterprise. Of the 1,142 people hired into Home Depot's store leadership program, a two-year training regimen for future store managers launched in 2002, almost half, 528 are junior military officers. More than 100 of them now run Home Depots.” It’s one thing to have faced a tough customer. It's another to face the enemy shooting at you. So they probably will be pretty calm under fire."…

    Where are the MacArthurs? Where are the Audie Murphys? They are all gone. We don’t have any out there." Coming from a guy who’s never been shot at in his entire life, that’s a pretty bold statement. But, you see, leaders were out there. And they are out there. And YOU will be out there. The Pattons and the Bradleys and the Audie Murphys, they aren’t running around in peacetime killing people, I hope to hell! it takes a war to demonstrate that we have these people in our ranks, and our ranks are loaded with them. They are loaded with them-and you are going to be one of them when you join our ranks. If there is any doubt in anybody’s mind, or was any doubt in anybody’s mind, there sure as hell isn’t any doubt now, because it took us 100 hours to kick the ass of the fourth largest army in the world! Competence with character. That’s what you must have. That’s what you are going to carry with you from West Point. Those of you who really believe what you are learning here. To hell with the cynics. Believe it! Believe it! Believe it! You must believe it if you are going to be a leader of the 21st –century military. You must believe it!” Throughout, the Corps had interrupted the general repeatedly with roars of approval – there is no other way to describe their spontaneous and enthusiastic reception of his presentation. At the end, the First Captain (the cadet commander of the Corps of Cadets), asked him if he would stand for questions. Schwarzkopf had not planned to do so – an audience of nearly 5000 normally is not a good forum for questions – but he graciously accepted the invitation. He held the cadets enthralled for another half hour or so with humor and candor. His performance was a textbook demonstration of charisma and its impact on a body of people. Finally, he paused, looked out over the Corps, and once more made his point: “we’ve had a good time tonght and we’ve had a lot of laughs, but I don’t want you to forget what I told you before. Don’t ever…

    The division was deactivated shortly after World War I and recommissioned to active service at Camp Barkeley, Texas, on March 25th, 1942. Quietly because no one knew that this was a unit whose destiny it was to smash the German defenses in Normandy, to break the enemy's back in the Foret de Mont Castre, and later to break his heart on the banks of Moselle. Quietly it was born because no one knew of the victories that lay before it, of Chambois and Oberwampach and the Saar and Koenigsmacker, of the Triumphany thrust across the soil of France, and the part of the 90th was to play in the reduction of the imgregnable fortress of the Metz.…

    First To Fight

    When reading this book, I truley learned the history and truth behind the United States Marine Corps. As a whole, the Marine Corps had a very long journey in the beginning. We have overcame so many obstacles and struggles along the way, and it has only made us stronger as a whole "team". As we began to learn to work together as a team, we started to prove ourselves. General Krulak shared secret behind-the-scenes information on new assult vehicles that were needed to attack on enemy beaches. These vehicles provided new technology for our Marine Corps. General Krulak convinced an admiral to board one of the demonstration vehicles. Krulak ended up attacking a coral reef and knocking the vehicle off track. The admiral was already enraged by taking up time to try and give this demonstration veicle a chance to prove his thoughts wrong. Admiral ended up jumping into the knee deep water and was sent back out to his ship shortly after. Later after reading, I came to find out the obstacles we had to overcome with making and carrying out actions with our bombs in specific weather conditions. The Marine Corps are not always given many materials to make "weapons" with. We were taught and coached on how to make do with what was given to us. We learned to innovate and try new things. We had to learn and abide by the term of being "frugal" with our belongings. We had to experiment and never give up. We had to never lose hope or give in. After a while of learning to use our stock wisely, we were able to invent new weapons. Towards the end of my reading, I started to relate to the book, thinking of my actions in my everyday lifestyle. It talks about the Marine Corps relationship with the public and how people kind of "percieve" the Marine Corps. As a Marine, I know that we uphold one of the highest images and are always know to be ready for anything, and because we have been molded and shaped into that type of team, it has withheld that image for the…

    mission readiness

    This essay is on the importance of remembering my gear at all times. Proper gear accountability can range from the most important pieces of gear such as my rifle all the way to my Kevlar. The units and individual soldier to whom this gear is issued are held accountable for maintaining them. Losing a piece of gear could have repercussions ranging from payment for lost property to legal action. Losing or not keeping up with your gear and equipment results to you not being mission ready. That is the last thing you want to happen to you or your unit. Especially, when you are a part of something important as GRF. The purpose of the GRF is to have units who are able to quickly deploy and execute decisive-action operations in support of combat operations and in some cases provide humanitarian assistance. If my unit was miraculously called up to deploy anywhere I would’ve been the one to hold the whole operation up. Most likely I would stay behind and have someone who has their stuff together take my spot. I have to stay in that mindset that we can be anywhere at a moment notice. That was bad on my part that I let myself get so careless when it come to my equipment. Before I went home that day I should’ve checked for all of my PPI because that’s exactly what I would do down range. I have to start getting into the battle rhythm now of checking my equipment every time I take it out into the field, range, or for something simply as a detail.…
