Responsibilities
My responsibilities as a Cavalry Scout was to be a reconnaissance specialist. Other duties involved with my
job was to provide security for other teams or bases depending on the mission. As a Cavalry Scout from
the beginning of my training I was taught what was expected from me and I excelled in every situation.
Responsibility is a major part of a Cavalry Scout due to the fact that you have to know your positions job to
your supervisors jobs.
Accomplishments
At the age of 20 I was given the title of squad leader. I was sought out to be a great leader due to my
quick thinking but most importantly my quality of listening to what my team has in mind. I have taken care of
equipment that was valued to $20,000 and not one item went missing. I was awarded the Army Commendation
Medal which is one of the highest awards in the military for my great dedication and work ethics.
Skills Used
This job required to be a team player. You were as strong as your weakest but everyone trusted each other
in any given situation. Staying motivated was another big skill that was needed to get through the mission.
Dedication and honor I held for my country and name showed I had true passion to get the job done no matter
the circumstances. My times as a squad leader proved that I can be put in situation and I will listen and come
up with a plan to accomplish the goal at hand.
