Ethics

Abstract

Webster's New World Dictionary and Thesaurus defines ethics as "conduct, morality, mores, decency, integrity, moral conduct, social values, moral code, principles, right and wrong, natural law, honesty, goodness, honor, social laws, human nature and the Golden Rule". The United States Army has its own ethics. They are known as the Army seven values. The Army want soldiers to live by these values Those values spell the acronym LDRSHIP. The values are Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, and Personal Courage. I will discuss them one at a time and give the dictionary definition and my own perception of the term Ethics.
