Answer:

World War II was considered to be the bloodiest conflict in recorded history. When surrounded by more death than is realistically imaginable, one soldier was able to use music as a way to communicate what no words could.

On a muddy evening two weeks after D-Day, Jack Leroy Tueller and his crew were waiting anxiously for the last German sniper that was watching them be eliminated. Feeling stressed, Tueller pulled out his trumpet to calm down, despite the wishes of his Commander.

Believing that the sniper was likely feeling just as scared and alone as they were, he decided to play out a famous German love song to try and ease the mutual tension. Sure enough, a military police truck drove up to their camp the following morning containing some recently captured prisoners, one of which was the last sniper. After inquiring about who the trumpet player was, he explained that the song made him think about his family back home in Germany, and he could not bring himself to fire after hearing it and gave himself up instead.

Music, it seems, can heal and inspire more than one type of mind wound. It strengthens the mind, inspires memories, and comforts the distressed.

Your roommate wants to learn about organization charts. You can tell her that an organization chart can tell you all of the foll

krok68 [10]

Answer:

Control mechanisms.

Explanation:

Organization charts are tree-like structures, commonly detailed from the top-most job position to the lowest job position available. Seeing an organizational chart would allow you to recognize what positions are under the supervision of a higher job position, illustrating the formal structure of the organization at hand.

It is possible to have knowledge of reporting relationships from just seeing the organizational chart based on this display. You would also be able to have a general overview of the work division between each department by seeing the organization.

However, it is not possible to know which control mechanisms are used by each position to execute their management functions. Control mechanisms are, for example, budgets, reports, and performance reviews. This information is never displayed in an organizational chart.
