History of Military Schools

Form the modest beginnings of the United States History, our national forefathers and greatest national leaders have always advocated the importance of military education. It all started with Col. Henry Knox writing to John Adams, a congressman and then a future president, suggesting establishment of a military school to educate the young men and women in military arts, sciences and technology not withstanding regimented and disciplined training.

Henry Knox knew about the fact that Military schools were already a very well-established concept in European Countries: Prussian Cadet Corps Opened in Berlin to train officers in 1771; Russia was next to set up a military school in 1732; The British opened the Woolwich Artillery school in 1741; The French had founded their L'Ecole Militaire in Paris in 1751.

In the October month of 1776, the continental congress had appointed a committee, a coterie of 5 elite gentlemen to chalk out a plan for establishing a national military school and the rest – as they say – is history. Thousands of military schools have been established across the United States of America while churning out illustrious Alumni – Men and Women of high caliber, who have been able to move to magnanimous things all over the world and successfully at that.

The aftermaths of the Vietnam War had caused the popularity of the military schools to nosedive and the schools had to fight for those precious footfalls for admissions. However, things have changed now and there are often long queues lined up and waiting lists to clamber due to the every growing number of anxious parents willing to join their children into these redoubtable institutions.

It is a grave mistake if you were one of those who thought that Military schools were, well, Military. Now they are more modern in their approach and are just as academically oriented as any of their academic counter parts and aren't just a repository for juvenile delinquents. Maybe they are the right answer to contemporary but mediocre public school education.

Military schools, apart from their newly acquired academic gleam, still manage to deliver the same public school education in a more controlled and disciplined atmosphere. That precisely is the reason why, these young men and women tumbling out of these institutions have a mark of self-respect, charm and sophistication along with high academic credentials earned through rigorous training, hard work, dedication and discipline – all of which is hard to replicate with the normal education systems.

What do you think of women in the military?

Im 20 and have joined the Air Force, to be a weather forecaster. Im wondering what people think of women in the military and if you think they should be in war zones. Oh ya and has anyone ever been in this field of have any info about the job. Thanks!
Alright guys I asked what you thought, not for degrading remarks, lets grow up boys okay?.

Women in support positions are great but I personally do not feel they should be on the front lines. As over 90% of the nursing profession is female it is necessary to have women in war zones but not at the actual firing line. As far as women being like G.I. Jane I do not think that is a good idea, the age of chivalry is not dead and male soldiers on the front lines would be distracted and willing to take unnecessary risks to ensure their female counterparts did not have to.
Weather forecasting in the Air Force sounds like an area that would be interesting and something you could transfer back to civilian life . Good luck.
