How many politician's in Washington exhibit these character traits or values? How about our previous Commander in Chief? I would like to say, WE SUPPORT OUR TROOPS, Because YOU still hold and affirm these VALUES! The acts of a few bad apples, should not tarnish the wonderful heritage of the "Grand Army of the Republic".

The Acronym Spells: LEADERSHIP !

Loyalty: Bear true faith and allegiance to the U.S. Constitution, the Army, your unit, and other soldiers.

Duty: Fulfill your obligations.

Respect: Treat people as they should be treated.

Selfless-Service: Put the welfare of the nation, the Army, and your subordinates before your own.

Honor: Live up to all the Army values.

Integrity: Do what's right, legally and morally.

Personal Courage: Face fear, danger, or adversity (Physical or Moral).


TOPICS: War on Terror; Your Opinion/Questions
KEYWORDS: army; bush; cheney; generalfrank; iraq; pentagon; rumsfeld; soldier; terror; war
Kudos to our soldiers who take these values to heart and wear them around their neck on their dogtags each day.

What about those individuals who abused the Iraqi prisoners?They didn't looked like they were coerced by anyone, do you? They were hamming it up and smiling ear to ear.

What do you call them?
