Ethical Dilemmas in the Army

Abstract

People face ethical dilemmas everyday. While serving as the course manager for the Civil Affairs Advanced Individual Training, I experienced a very difficult dilemma. Guidance from the chain of command conflicted with the Army Values I was teaching the Soldiers. Trying to balance the Army Values I was teaching to the students with the guidance given by the leadership placed me in one of my most difficult decisions as an instructor. This situation shows how some leaders self interests become more important than the Armys best interest.
