My Experience At The Military - 955 Words

I really did not know the type of work related stress I was going to get when I join the military, because my mother was always there for me. The first time I left my home town, family and flew in an aircraft was when I join the Unites States Air Force. During my experience 19 years in the military, I learned that our management and supervisors work hard to learn from previously cases and to teach how to prevent and or how to deal with stress. During this literature review, I learned more on how some military member’s coup with stress including PTSD, prepare military members prior deployment and how veteran’s experiences can mentor civilians with stressful jobs, and how management can ease the work related stress by being a good mentor and having different styles of leadership. Since the government are constantly trying to shut-down the monetary assistance to the military and veterans, how they are going to get the help when in need. Sometimes it is difficult to under stand when someone turns into alcoholics and other substance abuse to include over the counter medication. Some military members or veterans are considered binge drinkers when they consume 3 or more drinks for a male and a female consumes 4 or more drinks in a single occasion. Others will start to smoke to include smokeless tobacco (Allen, Crawford, Kudler 2016). For example, some members when they are deployed to an overseas location they will use Nyquil to go to sleep and they will become dependent.Show MoreRelatedMy Experience in the Military1233 Words   |  5 PagesMarcus Pennie Written Communication September 9, 2012 My darkest hour was also the moment I became a man.
