Blog #6 Which Republican was the winner of this weeks Debate?

Cadets, this is a little extra work for this week to make sure that you keep up with the Presidential Race that is starting to heat up on both sides.  This Wednesday evening is the 3rd Republican Debate and as there will be less candidates, hopefully they will get into more in depth answers to the questions that they are asked. Watch the debate on CNN and post which candidate you think won overall. Support your opinion with at least 2 facts that support their debate information and comment on at least one of your peer's opinions as well. I realize that most of you are not Republicans but remember, to win a war against your adversary you must know your opponent very well. Good luck and I look forward to seeing your results.

Blog #5 Where do all of these customs come from?

Good day cadets. Since we are studying about Customs and Courtesy's of the Military, your task this week is to try and find a custom of courtesy from our society or your family heritage and post the history that related behind the custom or courtesy. Post your url/site/magazine article to support your own work and make sure you comment on at least one of your peer's work and you will have completed your work this week. Good luck and don't forget your key terms from page 68 that are due on Wednesday the 28th of October as well.

Blog #2 News on the Internet and the Truth

Good morning again cadets and great job on your first assignment. Since we are studying about the Cadet Creed and remembering to not "Lie Cheat, or Steal", your task this week is to read/listen to the following clips and post your opinions. Remember that this information was being used as facts by a Presidential Candidate and also posted on the Internet so it must be true? Right?  After you have posted your opinion, search for a similar story that doesn't tell the whole truth and post the URL to our site along with your comments on one of your peers work. Once you have completed these 3 tasks, you will be eligable for your full grade.  Here is the link to NPR and I hope you enjoy this assignment.
