Military Personal Narrative
It was about noon. The sun was high and bright. The air was crisp, clean, and without a breeze. It was about 87 degrees with about 10 % humidity. The city was busy, infact really busy. A lot of people were out and about, taking advantage of the weather after a cold spring. The weather had just began to turn around and today was the warmest it has been all year. It was also a perfect day for opportunity.
I walked slowly and steadily. Creating a normal casual look, bringing no attention to myself. After all, that would blow my cover and mess up the perfect opportunity. This could be the only chance that I would have. I continued down the street carrying a large briefcase. Keeping that slow and steady pace trying extremely hard to look casual.

As I waited I ran threw the plans that I had come up with last night. All of this started weeks ago. I used to be a navy seal. I was the backup of my squad. I was the sniper and had the best shooting accuracy in the camp. I retired after a good 10 years as a Seal. However, as it was good for the military it lead to a disaster for me and my family later. The car arrived at 8:00 flat just as he said. The car was a black cadillac with all tinted windows. I walked to the car. The window rolled down. I guy wearing black shades was revealed. I told him that I had completed the job. Good he said. Something seemed not right though but I continued talking anyways. I demanded about the deal that they had set. You see the problem with that is if we let you have them you will go to the officials telling them of this. The man quickly pulled out a pistol. I knew that this was going to happen. The plans that I had made were going to come in useful, as I was a Navy Seal after all. In one swift movement I disarmed the man. He opened the door hitting me to the ground. It was going to be a fight and not a pretty one either. I got back up and landed a nice blow to the man's face. He responded with a quick kick and punch. I caught his arm and in less than 10 seconds I had my arms around his neck. Snap, I broke his neck. His lifeless body dropped to the floor as I released my

    Nearly a month ago I had bought Call of Duty Black Ops 3 at our local Walmart. After I came home I quickly unpacked all of my groceries and pulled out Black Ops 3. I soon started playing and right after my first multiplayer game my screen showed that disk was not reading. I later pulled it out to see it was scratched. As you are aware off it is half to impossible to repair a disk. I tried to return the disk and they wouldn’t take it back. I would appreciate it if you could fix this problem.…

    Despite non-selection, my pursuit of this prestigious and challenging position will not be deterred. My naval career, I have continually sought positions of greater responsibility and produced exceptional results in each of those positions. While I take great pride in being a Chief Petty Officer, I feel the experience I have acquired as a Chief will benefit any wardroom I am a member of. It is important to note that I did not submit an LDO-CWO package for FY-14 due to the time constraints I experienced while standing up Naval Beach Unit SEVEN with an under staffed office and operational commitment.…

    It would be an honor and a privilege to continue my service as a Surface Warfare Officer. I had the pleasure of being assigned to the USS Chung-Hoon during my senior Midshipman cruise. While on the Chung-Hoon, I was tasked with assuming the role of conning officer. I was held to the same expectation as my running mate; I was to have in-depth knowledge of the ship’s navigational capabilities, report for duty fully prepared to assume responsibilities, and, at all times, be diligent when working in unison with the different departments of the ship in order to assure safe navigation. Working with the officers and crew on the Chung-Hoon was the greatest lesson in leadership I experienced, and serves as the point in my life where I knew I was destined to be a warfighter. I know that as a Surface Warfare Officer,…

    I pulled my beanie securely on my head as I crouched down on a sturdy tree branch. My hunting knife reflected the dim light of the moon. It glinted letting my prey know I was there. "Yeah, I love a good chase!" I jumped from branch to branch as I chase my target. His brown hair was starting to gray but he ran pretty good for someone in their late forties. At least that's what boss lady said. I jumped down quietly as the man began to get tired. He began huffing as his pace slowed. I knocked into his back sending him into a tree. His chest heavily moved with his ragged breaths. I slowly approached him as I pulled my hunting knife back out. "Let play," I said in a deadpan tone. My eyes lost their light as I stared down at him.…

    Pow! Right smack in my forehead crushing my skull. The metal baseball bat knocked in my skull. It was a warm sunny day in the middle of the summer. Joey, my brother, was hitting tennis balls over my house. Little 10 year old me was playing in the yard and my brother purposely pushed me far away so he wouldn’t hit me. Oh how I was a stupid little kid. I was intrigued by what he was doing so I started wandering over to like how not knowing little kids do. As I approached my brother he was so focused on himself that he did not see me. When I finally reached him he had just set up to hit another ball. He hits the ball, but on his back rotation, the bat makes contact with my head. I fell hard on the pavement. Before I went unconscious I heard my…

    The bloody plane was shot down…I was sleeping dreaming about a concoction of fish and chips and my home before the war. I lived on a farm, and I had my own horse…I miss him. My dad taught me how to ride when I was four; riding would provide me relief from school and farming. Anyways, I then I awoke to a storm of fire. The plane was literally sliced in two. I think the beastly enemy shot us down. Even though they shot us clean out of the sky, I wish to thank them and show some British manners to them because this island is beautiful. It has fruit, and the sights are more beautiful than anything back home. There are even pigs on the island that we could eat. Sadly, I thought myself alone until a booming noise thundered through the jungle. I was scared; I thought it was an earthquake, although I have never experienced one before.…

    When you are someone’s support system you take on multiple roles that indirectly deteriorate your self preservation. Being a listener or a shoulder to cry on, requires sacrifices that, in the moment, you do not even recognize as imposing. Voluntarily and willingly being there for someone begins with the unwavering doubt that you and your own problems cannot and will not prevail over your person’s immediate crisis. Depending on the duration of your duty, a somewhat selfish thought of inconvenience is bound to surface. But, that wave of retraction is almost always combatted by a riptide of dedication and loyalty that brings you back to sea, where all you can do is tread. In turn, the suppression of self regarding issues regularly comes with a layer of obligation and a sting of bitterness.…

    It is another dreary night at Valley Forge. As I crawl into my unbearable smoky hut, doubt, fear, and cold death are roaming the walls of my hut. In the winter of 1777, Washington’s Continental army suffered terrible conditions at Valley Forge. Many soldiers died from sickness and severe cold weather. Others deserted the camp. Most soldiers received the chance of re-enlisting or not re-enlisting. This decision was one of the hardest decisions of their life. I have decided to re-enlist because the reason we fight in this war is for freedom, there is still hope within us, and pride and relief await after the war.…

    This time both Raiders thrust at me at the same time, over and over. I barely got my shield between one of the thrusts and my body. I didn’t have the angle to avoid both for long, since they had spread apart from each other. I felt another body on the ground at my heel, and then jumped back over it. Neither men had expected the move, they thrust into thin air. However, a Wolf slammed against my side as he struggled with a Raider next to him. The force of the hit unbalanced me, letting my two opponents recover and take my former space. I felt another push against me, and then saw the Wolf next to me staggered to one knee. My heels sank into the sand.…
