Ethics

Abstract

Profiles are a form of discrimination against leaders in the Army. In many cases Leaders with profiles face discrimination based on the unit and its leaders. Some Commanders will not allow a person to hold the position of Platoon Sergeant or Platoon Leader if they have certain types of profiles. The military has many regulations and guidelines that we as leaders are governed by. Profiles are covered in these Army Regulations. A profile is a medical statement, stating a physical limitation. Temporary profiles are used for the rehabilitation of an injury that is expected to heal in a reasonable amount of time. Permanent profiles are used for those soldiers that have injuries that will not heal in a reasonable amount of time.
