US Navy

The Marines came under the Department of the Navy in 1834. However, they have always been associated with them prior to that time. Though the Marines fall under the Department of the Navy, they are considered a separate service branch and independent fighting force. The Navy and Marine Corps operate as separate branches under the Department of the Navy, each having their own Commanding Officers who in turn report directly to the Secretary of the Navy.

Regulations state the Navy Working Uniform (camo) can only be worn to work, on the job and home. If you're drving home and have to stop for gas, food or quickly stop at a store, etc you may but you can't just wear them around all day

Probably oak, that is the traditional hard wood for the old wooden sailing ships.

Technically, Philadelphia would be considered where the Navy was initially "founded", though the term isn't correct. Though the Navy considers its birthday to be October 13, 1775 (birth of the Continental Navy) the United States Navy was established by the Constitution, which gives Congress the legal authority to maintain a naval force.

However, the real first home of the Navy is the Washington Navy Yard, in S.E. Washington, D.C. It served as the Navy's first shipbuilding and ordnance center, and continues to play an important role in Navy affairs to this day (neat place to work also).

the names of the specific members that evening could probably be found in David Liftons Best Evidence as he traced most of them.I believe Hubert Clark was one and another could be Donald Rebentisch.They all expressed a real confusion over events that night.

Lifton found Lieut Bird who led the HG but he had been badly wounded in Vietnam. General Wehle was in overall command.

A military recruiter can be any rank. Recruiter is a duty station not a rank. Recuiters get a bonus though for every sucker they catch above their quotum. Since bonusses can only be paid to officers, recuiters can not be simple enlisted asses.

No. A Rear Admiral is a one or two stars officer, while an Admiral is a four-star officer.

The Admirals rank is as follows:

1 star: Rear Admiral (lower half)

2 star: Rear Admiral (upper half)

3 star: Vice Admiral

4 star: Admiral

Where 4 star is the highest, equivalent to an Army or Air Force General.

I assume you are talking about an early discharge? The ONLY person who can help you is the priest. You do not need to have any type of religion to talk to him, DON'T LIE. Be very convincing when you talk to him, Beg him to help you, Tell him how you have made the worst mistake of your life by joining, Do exactly what he advises but without failure let him know how bad you want out. His job is to convince you to stay, but, He is the only one who will help you get out too. GOOD LUCK, Miracles take time, don't expect to be home in less than two months.

add-on - no you don't have to go talk to the priest (oh and by the way there aren't priests in the military, there called chaplains, but there isn't a whole lot they can do to help you, they don't know the legal aspects of things ) and it depends on how you want to get discharged, if you want to get an honorable discharge (helps get jobs) talk to the career planner or Legal Assistance. If you don't care about honorable discharge, there are plenty of ways to get a dishonorable discharges (will limit you to what jobs you can get, and will also put you lower and the scale by employers as a possible candidate)

Within the US Federal Government, the executive branch appoints the various judges in the Federal justice system. Supreme Court judges and Federal district judges are appointed by the US President and must be approved by a majority of the US Senate.

John Barry.

It depends on the situation.

In virtually 99% of all cases, the enlisted member salutes the officer first.

However, and though not specifically required by law or military regulation, the only exception is if the enlisted member is a Medal of Honor recipient; in that case, all ranks, junior and senior, are encouraged to salute the MOH recipient first as a matter of respect and courtesy.

Admiral is a rank exclusive to naval forces.

Experience and memory retention goes a long way also.

There is no real easy way to learn; either you have the ability naturally, you have the ability to learn it, or you'll always be clueless. The Navy recognizes that most people aren't detail oriented when they first join; that's one of the major functions of Boot Camp, and why they rag on you for getting your bedsheets folded right, uniforms squared away, barracks spotless, etc. When you get used to being punished for missing details, you quickly learn to start paying attention a lot more to the way things are supposed to be. 50% of BT is learning how to pay attention to details.

In the real world, it's actually pretty easy if you know how. Everything has some type of procedure, regulation, rule, i.e., the way it's supposed to be. By studying how things are supposed to be done the correct way, it's a lot easier to determine what's out of place. Of course studying and memory retention are a large part of it, but as I said, if you practice long enough it eventually comes naturally, to the point where you start irritating people around you who aren't as detail oriented.

Most people tend to take at face value what they're told, even if it's wrong. That's because they don't know, don't have the experience, or haven't studied something to learn if what they're being told is actually the truth or not. Even today, with the instant information available via the 'net, I still find bad information being repeated on sites, simply because people don't bother to really research and find out for themselves if the information is good or not.

One way they used to drill us in Quality Assurance was to give us several paragraphs of text to proofread, and also to see how much we could remember. You can start by proofing your own typing/writing in emails; when you finish, don't use a spell checker, but go back to see how well you actually did.

You can also proofread the stuff you read online; these days it's hard to find anything that doesn't have spelling or grammar errors, missing text, double words, etc.

I remember years ago when my daughter was in school, she stopped bringing her homework to me to proofread. Eventually though, she started learning, and today she's a lot more detail oriented when it comes to her line of work.

Yes

if he is a medical officer appointed by govt.

No: Montel Williams, noted talk show host and personality, enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1974 and a year later was accepted to the Naval Academy. He served as a Crypto Officer aboard the USS Sampson during the Invasion of Grenada, and after 12 years left the Navy with the rank of Lt. Commander.

hi! I actually just finished studying this. Chief little turtle was the chief of the Miami Indians in the late 1700's. He was mad because the American settlers were invading their Indian territory by moving onto it. So, little turtle would tell different groups of his tribe to attack the Americans. This angered Washington. Washington sent his troops to settle things. The compromise was that if the Americans could remain on that land, the Indians would receive $20,000 worth of goods from the American Government. Hope this helps!

If you're wondering if you need a 2 year or 4 year degree, the answer is that you need at least a BA or BS degree from an accredited institution in order to be a Commissioned Officer in the U.S. Navy in most cases. There are a limited number of methods to earn a commission through the enlisted ranks, but these are becoming harder every year.

The official term for a Enlisted Navy Recruit is "Seaman Recruit". For Officers attending the Naval Academy, they are know as "Midshipmen".

clown, recruit, seaman, idiot, screw up. pretty much watch full metal jacket and write down every name you hear

No, no army has more ships than its navy.

United States Navy personnel have peacoats as part of their winter uniform.
Pea coats were typically worn by sailors in European navies. The term "pea coat" comes from the Dutch pijjekker : pij, type of coarse cloth + jekker, jacket.
The US Navy issues the pea jacket as part of their clothing issue.
