The last ship
The drama is about..
Naval Destroyer Nathan
James is sent on what they're told is a research mission in the Arctic.
Accompanying them is scientist, Rachel Scott. After a few months in the Arctic
while Scott is on the ice doing research, some men attack them. They get back
to the ship and the Commander, Tom Chandler asks the doctor what's going on.
She says that a deadly disease broke out a few months ago. At first, they
thought it was contained but they had no cure. They felt that the cure was in
the Arctic which why she's here. But she has since received word that it has
now spread to most of the globe. Chandler tries to call the President but
learns the President and Vice President are dead and the US government might
not have long to survive. The current President tells him that the Nathan James
was not in the hot zone so he and his crew are OK. But now it's up to them to
safeguard Scott because she holds the key to the planet's survival. But there
are those who want the cure too and they will do whatever they have to, to get it.
So they keep going and trying to find supplies and what they need so Scott can
make the cure.
The USS Nathan James is in for a rough
week. What a horrible mess the ship is in now. This means no showers, no
shaving, no flushing toilets, no bug juice and – worst of all, no yummy coffee.
A ship without coffee is like a ship without a moral compass. On top of all
this crap, Scottie is malingering in medical. She seems to be sick but I think
she is just plain feeling kind of blue. Poor kid, if it was up to me, I would
give her a medal or better yet, a terrible. That's it, she needs a terrible, that
would definitely brighten her day. But damn it, there are no tribbles in this episode. The CHUNG just needs to shake off whatever is bothering her and get
down to engineering and fix her damned ship. Oh the agony. Well – alas - that
just ain't going to happen…her dilithium crystals are all broken up like the
rest of the ship. Wow, am I ever befuddled. I need a serious mind-meld. Without
Scotty, who will fix the ship? Who will save the day? Who?
Not to worry…engineering has an Ace up their sleeve. Kind of a diamond in the rough if you may. It took a bit, but someone finally lit a fire under the Main Propulsion Assistant (MPA)'s butt. I thought the guy was a real slacker at first. But I was wrong. The guy really stepped up his game and took over for his boss. Of course I don't want to get too far ahead with praising the guy. He kind of caused all these problems in the first place. So he is a bit of a goof. But in the end, he did come through and saved the day. With those heroic actions, I think the man is well deserving of a solid Bravo Zulu and maybe even a medal - or maybe even two?

The lesson learned from the scene is leadership skills through Cap. Chandler's character
Thankfully, Captain Chandler’s character is also a good strong
man and taking the advice of the master chief also a
good strong man, he gave the President a more compelling narrative and he gave
him empathy, trust and belief. As the President began embracing his role
as Commander and Chief and President of the United States he had been very
unsure of himself. It came out how unsure he was of himself in this new
role in this recent episode when he went to the mess hall to meet some of the
crew for the first time and couldn’t actually bring himself to go around and
shake hands with anyone let alone decide what he wanted to eat for lunch.
He gracefully got out of the situation. He then opened up conversation
with Master Chief about his lack of confidence in himself by commenting that he
was supposed to be able to make decisions for an entire country and he couldn’t
even make a decision about what to eat for lunch. Captain Chandler had
asked Master Chief to follow the President and be whatever he needed father,
son, brother, preacher whatever he needed to be to the President that was
needed. The levels and layers of leadership are evident. Chandler
is a strong leader, Master Chief is a strong leader, so is the President when
he comes around. And he does…
Master
Chief asks the President how many people worked for him when he was in his
position with the State. He changed course when the President balked at
that question. He instead said something interesting, the Navy has been
studying leadership since 1776 and knows a lot about it. He said between
the “XO, the Captain and myself, we have 67 years of leadership experience
behind us”. He was basically reading off his credentials to give weight
to what he was about to say to the President. He first showed the
President that these 3 aforementioned men were men to be inspired by, in awe
of, respected so the following message would be read loud and clear. We
are worthy, and we who are worthy believe you are also worthy. He shot
him with hope.
Leaders
are not born, they are made, he told the President. We believe in you, he said. What a
dose of hope
and encouragement. A few scenes in, it is evident
that the President was inoculated with such courage and confidence that he commits to
the task at hand. The task of becoming that leader for the country that
Captain Chandler and the rest believe him to be. No small task and
he began by taking A step. He made a decision to make himself.
He then broke down his journey into bite size pieces. He was eating the
elephant one bite at a time.
1. He got educated as educated as he could.
He read reports from the Navy’s journey since the pandemic outbreak of the
virus. He read up on the “job description” of the President essentially,
then he asked to read more reports upon reports, any military intelligence they
had obtained.
2. He sought out to understand the current situation.
He briefed himself on reality. He observed reality, those in the field,
those doing the hard work.
3. He trusted and believed that he would know what to do next if he
didn’t already know. The next decision he made was to take the reins
and give the US Navy a plan for taking back America!
It was so powerful to watch this episode and see so many
wonderful leadership lessons play out! A leader is made not born over
bits and pieces of decisions, observations, experiences, passions lit, hopes
squelched a leader never ceases being on the journey to being a leader and
along the way they never cease leading.http://www.thelastshiptnt.com/
SURVIVAL ISN'T ABOUT WHO YOUR ARE, BUT ABOUT WHO YOU BECAME TO SURVIVE
Despite the fact that many situations they encounters are
completely unrealistic. We can learn a lot from how quick thinking and
improvisation gets them out of a wide-range of jams, and many of the techniques
that we see on screen are actually the same things that the military teaches
soldiers. Let’s look at a few things that you can incorporate into your
own survival skill set in order to improve your chances of coming out of a
life-or-death situation unscathed.
Having
the Right Attitude
we can learn how to thrive in difficult
circumstances. when are taken out our element, given challenges and
encouraged and expected to tackle them head-on. Quitting, complaining, worrying
and running away are not characteristics of the attitude that is being
instilled into our minds. The result? Capable, adaptable and confident
adults.
Listening
Before Acting
we must be able to listen and take assessments of
situations before making decisions. This helps to avoid making poor
judgment calls and decisions that can have serious negative consequences. This
is an essential survival characteristic that all of us need to keep at the
front of our minds. Making rash decisions or acting on impulse could lead to
injury or death.
Being
Responsible
every one must be accountable for their actions, and others
depend on them to make good choices. we must know when to ask for help, understand that decisions we make will impact others, and don’t pass the
buck when are wrong. Responsibility is a process of trial and error that
refines us through our mistakes and gives us the confidence to lead.
These are just a few of many characteristics that we develop and carry with them later in life. They are also essential for
survival. While we experience much of hands-on training in
wilderness situations, its the character formation that really helps us to
succeed, and it can help us as well. Remember that tools and skills only go so
far, and our attitude and character will also contribute to how we contend with
survival situations.!
