Doing What Is Right

Abstract

My Ethics paper is based on my experiences and thoughts on ethics. In the army we are trained to deal with situations and to make timely decisions that affect our Soldiers. Leaders can either build a team or brake a team. For the last twenty-three years have tried my best to train, mentor, and set the example for Soldiers to follow. I just hope that I am and have accomplished my goals by setting the standard for our Soldiers. Throughout the contingency operations I have faithfully served over the past twenty three years of military service. One thing I have found to be true through my own personal experience is that we must train our Soldiers to the Army standards. We don't know what tomorrow brings or where we may find ourselves deployed. The Army values should guide us through all situations and difficult decisions we must make. We must always remember that unethical behavior quickly destroys organization's morale and cohesion. In addition, it undermines the trust and confidence that is essential to teamwork and accomplishment of the mission.
