LATE

LATE

I will first cover the regulations and doctrine provided by the United States Army. I will use the United State Publishing Directorate website to access all appropriate regulations. The site can be accessed at http://www.apd.army.mil/. The first document I will collect data from is the Manual for Courts-Marshall United State (2008 edition). Failure to Report is not clearly definably in violation of any one article. It may be, however, in violation of Article 92. This article covers a failure to obey an order or a regulation. Failure to Report falls into this article simple because the order is given by a senior ranking individual. This can be done orally, which is most common, and verbally, such as a training schedule. By not reporting for duty or accountability you are in direct violation of Article 92 and can receive a summarized, company, or field grade article 15. This will depend on how many offenses you have in the past, your work ethic and the reason you failed to report. Given enough offenses you may be chaptered for patterns of misconduct. Failure to Report negatively affects the United States Army in many ways.
In the United States Military, tardiness is unacceptable. I could write this essay and fill it with excuses as to why I was late, but the fact of the matter is that there is no excuse. The main reason for this essay is because I did not follow out proper orders and was not at the correct place of duty for Physical Training. Being at the right place at the right time is particularly important; reason being is to make certain orders are carried out and to ensure a steady rhythm. I realize that when everything is running behind and then we all have to end up staying later than we would have had to in the first place it makes the whole day very hectic and then people get irritated easily. It would make things run much smoother if everyone was on time all the time. Being late is not only important in the army, but it is vital everywhere. No matter...
