Although, the last year’s super bowl champions, the Patriots use the 4-3 defense. If you take a look at all the teams who record is 5-0, they all use a 3-4 defense. Football’s 3-4 defense has become a very popular defense in the last couple of years thanks to teams like the Green Bay Packers, Pittsburgh Steelers and the Kansas City Chief. Since the 3-4 defense can cause mass for quarterbacks, while also stopping the run by filling the gaps it is the best…

The United States of America is the longest lasting democracy to date, but America did not get there in holy grace as many believe it to have done. The fact is America got to where she is through failures, miscalculations, terrorism, conspiracy, and lying to its very own people through many facets of foreign policies and actions in other countries. The Vietnam War, specifically the Gulf-of-Tonkin Resolution and the Gulf-of-Tonkin Incident, are prime examples of how far American Presidential Administrations went to exclude themselves from their own Constitution to give themselves a blank check for war. The Gulf-of-Tonkin Incident was a complete fabrication that from the start was meant to provoke a military response from the Democratic Republic of Vietnam.…
In 1962 as part of a larger nuclear test program, Operation Dominic, the United States conducted a series of high altitude nuclear tests named Operation Fishbowl. Three high altitude nuclear tests were planned with two low yield tests added at a later date. They were to be launched on Thor missiles from Johnston Island in the Pacific Ocean north of the equator. All tests were to be conducted at night to alleviate any potential for eyeburn or permanent retinal damage to the military personnel.…
Over the years the United States navy has evolved their ships to be used in war and for defense. To modernize ships the recent navy has out fitted ships with weapons to give them more versatility, instead of using cannons now the United States Navy uses missiles, torpedoes, and guns to fulfill their duty to protect the United States of America. Ships used in the United States navy have evolved from wooden sailing ships into steel nuclear or gas powered ships. Some ships that were commissioned before 1900 were destroyers, and cruisers.…

Despite any hard evidence or confirmed reports, Congress approved the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, giving President Lyndon Johnson the freedom to send troops to Vietnam. First, explain how this resolution is different from the way the Constitution allows for the United States to go to war. Then, tell me some of the actions President Johnson took once he was allowed to send troops to Vietnam. Finally, tell me whether or not you agree or disagree with giving any President the powers and freedom to send troops wherever he pleases. Back up your stance with examples (don’t just say I agree or I disagree).…
Being a Marine is the most challenging and rewarding responsibility a person could face. It is a known fact that the Marines have the toughest and most difficulty training course in the world. Men and women from all over the world try their abilities of strength and courage to see what life can throw at them, and what it is to be a true Marine(Conner). The United States Marine mental and moral qualities have been tested throughout history. Through the long history of the Marine Corps there are examples, both in war and in peace, of such qualities as versatility, trustworthiness, singleness and tenacity of purpose, courage, faithfulness, and self-sacrifice (Marines Welcome). On November 10, 1775, the Continental Congress meeting in Philadelphia passed a resolution stating that "two Battalions of Marines be raised" for service as landing forces with the fleet. This resolution, established the Continental Marines and marked the birth date of the United States Marine Corps. Serving on land and at sea, these first Marines distinguished themselves in a number of important operations, including their first amphibious raid into the Bahamas in…
The Korean War Memorial is a beautiful memorial in Washington D.C.’s West Potomac Park. It commemorates the 54,246 US soldiers who died in the Korean War. (American Battle Monuments Commission) The Korean War war was dedicated on July 27th 1995 by Bill Clinton and the President of the Republic of Korea, Kim Young Sam. It began construction on October 28th 1986 and President George H.W. Bush conducted the groundbreaking of the Memorial. (IBOV) The $18 million memorial had a massive delay because they debated over how the war should be represented/commemorated. (New York Times 1996) It's upsetting how we've forgotten about the deaths and how poorly the memorials funding has got, it is extremely unappreciated.…
In 1961, South Vietnam signed a military and economic deal with the United States that allowed the United States to send troops to Vietnam. This formed the U.S Military Assistance Command. With the United States being unsatisfied with the corruption of Diem’s government that the United States accidently funded, Diem was then assassinated. When a leader was finally established in South Vietnam, the United States military aid increased. Especially because the U.S Senate passed the Tonkin Gulf Resolution that was proposed by Lyndon B. Johnson. In 1965 the United States used air raids on North Vietnam and communist areas in South Vietnam. North Vietnam was being aided by the Soviet Union and other communist countries. The United States military aid then was enlarged along with more massive…
The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, to me was a considerable formal declaration of war against communist North Vietnam. The United States wasn’t interfering with the conflict between North and South Vietnam, they were in international waters. The U.S did have a right to attack to keep peace and have security between themselves and the rest of the world.…
