The Importance of Appearance in the Military The military has long been the epitome of professionalism. Throughout the years there have been military standards in ceremony, dress, drills, physical training, and behavior which by far exceed the standards of nearly every civilian organization. Simple things from the way one service member speaks to another, to the way in which one salutes another of superior rank are all outlined in army regulations. The most standard regulation which covers military appearance and uniforms is outlined in Army Regulation 670-1. This regulation shows the proper way to wear and set-up the army combat uniform as well as the dress greens/army service uniforms.
Organization Communication and Organizational Culture in the Air Force As most any branch of the military, the Air Force’s vision and mission statements are the same which are to serve, fight and win. The Air Force’s mission is to “fly, fight, and win”. (U.S. Air Force, 2009).

A prime example of a physical control used in ancient times is the Great Wall of China; the great wall was built in order to protect the northern boarders for the Chinese Empire. In recent history is the development of the Department of Homeland Security; the event of 9-11 took security and person protection to a whole other level. According to the Homeland Security National Preparedness Task Force (2006, p. 25), Then came the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

Finally, the necessity of judicial review in the checks and balance system and its importance will be proved. One of the most important features of the jurisdiction, Hamilton stated, was the complete independence of the branch from the other two branches. The tenure in which the judges hold during good behavior is their biggest protection and creates the separation from other branches.
Colonial Differences America has always been a land of great diversity. This dates back to the first English settlements in North America. In the beginning, the colonies were divided up into three distinct areas: northern colonies, middle colonies, and southern colonies. Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut, and Rhode Island comprised the northern colonies; New York, Delaware, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania made up the middle colonies; and Virginia, Maryland, Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia composed the southern colonies.

To show disrespect and to act discourteous towards senior ranking personnel goes against tradition, regulation, and honor. Traditionally, respecting seniors was critical throughout military forces though history.
