Title:
Situational Ethics in the Army
Report Date:
2020-01-01
Abstract:
In today's Army it is increasingly apparent that much of the American culture's ethical erosion is seeping into the ranks of Soldiers and thereby will have, and has had, a detrimental effect upon the Army as a whole. The narcissistic societal norms that are evolving are in direct contrast to the Army values leading some Soldiers and leaders to play lip service to such noble attributes as selfless service, honor, duty, and loyalty. As an institution that exhibits these stalwart ideas and concepts it is essential that we do not compromise the time honored standards that has distinguished the Army as the embodiment of the American character. Leaders at all levels, from the squad leader to the General officer should not only strongly emphasize the Army values as more than a generic concept but a lifestyle, but also strive to live them out in their daily lives as a great example for their Soldiers.
