DoD SkillBridge Program & Credentialing Expert 💥 Getting industry leading organizations DoD SkillBridge approved, and building their successful train-to-hire programs 💥
If you recall a few months ago, the United States Marine Corps released their latest #DoDSkillBridge instruction which mirrored the Navy's. It was rescinded within a few days because it wasn't actually "approved". Well, now it is approved. Most of us think about #SkillBridge from the service member perspective. But there are other perspectives to consider... ✅ The military will remain the military, and each CO has a certain level of readiness to maintain with their Unit ✅ #SkillBridgeOpportunities are a luxury and not a right. Each service member should understand that they'll be transitioning at some point, and utilize the other programs available to them (i.e. COOL) in order to best prepare themselves for Life 2.0 ➡️➡️ While I won't ague against the need for transitioning resources for the military community, what other industry / job / or company do you know of that is willing to pay you full-time and not receive any immediate benefit from doing so❓❓ It's not cheap to keep a service member employed and not receive a direct benefit of their employment 💯 There's still a need for the DOD to narrow down who should be participating in the program. #SkillBridge wasn't designed to support 200K #TransitioningServiceMembers each year. It was originally designed to support service members who have MOS's that don't specifically translate into civilian work. If you do cyber, and want to continue doing cyber post military, consider your #SkillBridge approval a gift. If you're a tank driver, or Boatswain Mate, #SkillBridge was designed for you. Thoughts on the new instruction?
What’s my WHY⁉️ In 2018 I volunteered at a Veterans homeless Stand Down, and ran into a person I was stationed with 12 years earlier…unfortunately they were enrolled in HUDVASH and weren’t one of the other volunteers.

Fire in the hole! Nice short clip here. Amazing work goes into planning bridge demolitions in general but damaged structures like this one are even more challenging! Glad this was shared so we can all see. #construction #deconstruction #demolition
Another great milestone achieved by our amazing team at the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse. Thanks to the Baltimore District, North Atlantic Division, and our partners with the Navy Supervisor of Salvage overseeing this operation and ensuring its safe execution. #Nomissiontogreat #BridgingtheAtlantic

Professional Historian of American History, DEN Star Educator with Discovery Education, 2022 Westside High School Teacher of the Year and 2022 Gilder Lehrman US History Teacher of the year for the State of Florida
December 7, 1941, is a significant date in history as it marks the attack on Pearl Harbor, a naval base in Hawaii, by the Imperial Japanese Navy. The surprise military strike occurred early on a Sunday morning and had a profound impact on the United States, leading to its entry into World War II. Key Points: Attack on Pearl Harbor: On the morning of December 7, 1941, Japanese aircraft carried out a surprise attack on the U.S. Pacific Fleet anchored at Pearl Harbor. The attack targeted battleships, cruisers, and aircraft, resulting in significant damage and casualties. Casualties and Damages: The attack led to the destruction or severe damage of eight U.S. battleships, multiple cruisers and destroyers, and almost 200 aircraft. The human toll included over 2,400 Americans killed and around 1,200 wounded. Reasons for the Attack: Japan aimed to neutralize the U.S. Pacific Fleet to facilitate its territorial expansion in Southeast Asia and the Pacific. The attack was part of a broader Japanese strategy to secure access to vital resources in the region. Declaration of War: The attack on Pearl Harbor prompted the United States to declare war on Japan the following day, on December 8, 1941. This declaration marked the country's formal entry into World War II. Impact on World War II: The attack on Pearl Harbor shifted public opinion in the United States, galvanizing support for the war effort. It also led to the internment of Japanese Americans, reflecting wartime concerns about national security. Remembering Pearl Harbor: December 7 is observed as National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day in the United States. Ceremonies and commemorations are held to honor the lives lost and to reflect on the historical significance of the attack. The attack on Pearl Harbor served as a catalyst for the United States' active involvement in World War II, shaping the course of the conflict and influencing subsequent geopolitical developments. https://lnkd.in/gYxfPYCb

United States Marine Corps USMC Special Operations USMC Scout Sniper Association Marine Scout Sniper Heritage Foundation Recon & Sniper Foundation Rule 9- PAY YOURSELF FIRST: Invest and manage money smartly. Avoid borrowing money. If you do, pay it back as soon as possible. Enjoy your money, but always make sure you have more than you need in the bank. Shit happens and you will need a safety net. Also, if you lend out money, consider it gone. If you do business with a friend, you risk losing your friend, proceed with great caution. If you buy something, buy the very best quality you can afford. Take care of your gear, you may need to sell it one day. More importantly, your life may very well depend on that gear one day, make sure it’s ready. I think that's @trey.dustpan under there somewhere. #recon #sniper #sarc #reconsniper #scoutsniper #specialamphibiousreconnaissancecorpsman #recondo #forcerecon #Kopfjager #fuckaverage #usmc #marines #headhunter #swift #silent #deadly

The United States Marine Corps is the world's premier fighting force. More than 220 years of success and tradition have helped carve a place for Marines in the hearts of Americans. We epitomize that which is good about our nation and personify the ideals upon which it was founded. Generation after generation of American men and women have given special meaning to the title United States Marine. The Nation expects more of the Marine Corps than just success on the field of battle. America requires its Marines to represent her around the globe as a symbol of the might, resolve, and compassion of our great country. Feared by enemies, respected by allies, and loved by the American people, Marines are a "special breed." This reputation was gained through and is maintained in a set of enduring core values that form the bedrock and heart of our character. Ensuring that today's Marines uphold the legacy of those who have gone before begins at the recruit depots and Officer Candidates' School. Here we undertake the transformation of young Americans into Marines, and ultimately into contributing citizens in our communities in a unique and indelible way. From our earliest days as Marines, we are taught that the Marine Corps is a special team -- a family. Just as the family should play a major role in the upbringing of children, the Marine Corps embraces this noble responsibility in the "upbringing" of Marines in the Marine family. Part of belonging to the Marine team and family involves incorporating the values of that team into the daily lives of each of its members. We all understand, and must subscribe to, our Corps values: honor, courage, commitment. There are other values which we honor as defenders of the constitution: the ideals of democracy, fairness, faith, and freedom. These values and the basic concept of right and wrong, are cornerstones in building Marines.
