he NCO 2020 strategy is focused on creating a system that will provide the NCOs with access to develop and broadening the experiences needed in both garrison and within operational environment. In addition, leaders will individually help to commit to long-term careers, which will be essentially focused on the development of educational, professional and with the fulfillment of having a ready force for war at all times. Essentially the strategy of the NCO 2020 is to have leaders at all levels understanding that the development of Soldiers must be constant and continuous throughout their career.

Broadening is achieved through career with experiences and education in different cultures and organizational settings. There are different opportunities in the Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) that could represent an opportunity to broadening their career, these are in the area of Recruitment, High Head Quarters (HHQ), Instructor, National Guard Bureau (NGB), Title 10 or a Nominative position. The best combination to broadening and stay competitive is that we can have NCOs that meet the requirements of the NCOPDS and in turn have the growth that the Army needs.

This model of professional development must be progressive and with a common career map for all NCOs. Focusing on the five lines of effort that are, military life cycle, education, assignment / experience, credentialing / experience and self-development. These lines of effort are focused on the tasks and missions that are link in establishing the operational and strategic conditions of the future. The development of future NCO will depend on how the leaders of the present will train in an institutional, operational and self-development way to the new generation. Responsibility and commitment is much greater because the war models have changed and have allowed the broadening assignments, operational assignment and professional assignment, in this way the combination of both generations will allow shared responsibility and stewardship for U.S.
The SRM model will also give more flexibility to leaders allowing for more development of their leadership skills. Under the ARFORGEN model, low and mid-level leaders missed development opportunities because all direction came from higher command (Foster, 2016). These leaders found themselves passing on training plans whereas in the past they would have developed and implemented their own plans. “

This force drawdown will diminish manning flexibility and reduce Active Duty for Operational Support (ADOS) personnel. The mission within the ALARACT focuses on providing the Army Active Component (AC) with Manning Guidance (MG) for FY13-15 that is synchronized with the Army’s priorities.

(2022) Being a Platoon sergeant or Section NCO within the intelligence filed means you are likely going to be responsible for conducting training for Soldiers that do not share your military occupational specialty. For example, as a Human Intelligence NCO you may be a platoon sergeant for both Human Intelligence and Signals Intelligence Soldiers. Both of these occupational specialties have very distinctly different training needs to remain proficient in their respective tasks. As the Senior NCO in that platoon, the command team is going to look to the platoon sergeant and the respective platoon leader to organize, resource, and conduct training for the entire platoon to ensure

Throughout the years of being a part of Navy Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps, (NJROTC) one can start to see a trend. From unmotivated Naval Science One cadets to motivated and dedicated Naval Science Three and Four cadets.

As time passes, you realize that you have become a more involved active citizen in the United States. It’s beneficial because current events have created a spike in debates.
In his speech to the Senate Armed Services Committee on 28 January 2015, General Odierno described the many challenges affecting Army resourcing and readiness. Because of sequestration, the Army has to take risks with readiness to operate within budget guidelines. In particular, the brigade combat teams (BCT) with only 10% of them prepared to pursue their missions, while the remaining brigades lacked the adequate preparation. To fill the void National Guard and Army Reserve unit are being relied on more but with further cuts the unit will not be able to help sustain the Army’s operational requirement worldwide. Younger Officers have underwent separation boards, which has forged a divisive rift between soldiers of the highest caliber.
The second principle, joint enterprise, is the common goal that participants work toward. Eckert and McConnell-Ginet (1998:490) write, “the community of practice takes us away from the community defined by a location or by a population. Instead, it focuses on a community defined by social engagement.” In Nolan’s case, the unifying goal is passing through the four levels of the ROTC program. Upon graduation, ROTC students have a military career ready and waiting for
As the Army Junior ROTC program celebrates its 100 year of being established, cadets and instructors start to realize its purpose and its significant changes. I take a glance into the past and gathered information on historical events contributing to the program. Also acknowledging the program’s difference from today and 100 years ago. These aspects will likely determine the future of the Army Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps.
The Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps’ mission statement is to, “To motivate young people to be better citizens.” JROTC prepares young men to have leadership and to have benefits in their citizenship. JROTC prepares young men to be independent to be in charge of others that could benefit others to be better leaders. JROTC provides different activities such as service learning projects, which is a project which gives opportunities of knowledge, discipline, and a sense of responsibility to take for the future.

During the course of this paper we will focus in on a issue at hand within my career field, which is the waste of government funding by shipping unnecessary cargo.
From the lesson of training, I also realized the weight that officers hold when it comes to building trust, motivating, and pushing their soldiers. They are going to expect the utmost level of skill as well as professionalism that you must provide as an officer. In return, it is your right to expect the same level of excellence from your soldiers, being there to push them above the standard and holding them to being experts and professionals. This is a trait that no matter how skilled you or your soldiers may be, there will always be room for constant improvement and
a. The Army White Paper seeks define ourselves as a Profession of Arms and as Professional Soldiers in the era of constant conflict that we now live in. The paper is a thoughtful look into the past, present and future of our profession. It will have top leaders thinking about the direction of our profession and ways to keep the American Soldier a professional in his field. b. The beginning of the paper talks about the Army as a profession of arms by posing the question, “what does it mean to be a professional?”.
Among these five characteristics; military expertise, honorable service, trust, esprit de corps, and stewardship of the profession, I believe that military expertise and stewardship of the profession are the two characteristics that make a leader excel in the presence of their peers. ADRP 1 defines military expertise as, “Military expertise is the design, generation, support, and ethical application of land power, primarily in unified land operations, and all supporting capabilities essential to accomplish the mission in defense of the American people”. In order to gain trust from your subordinates for them to follow your guidance, a leader must have military expertise. Without being an expert in your field, subordinates will not trust your guidance provided unto them. ADRP 1 defines Stewardship of the Profession as, “Stewardship is the responsibility of Army professionals to ensure the profession maintains its five essential characteristics now and into the future”.
