Army Values
Loyalty
Loyalty is being true and loyal to your country the unit and yourself. You can not be succesfull in the army without being loyal. It earns the respect of others in your unit. You must be loyal to your battle buddies. If you go on a deployment and you havnt been loyal to what the army stands for than you wont have the peace of mind that the ones you searve with will have your back.
Duty
It is your duty as a united states soldier to protect the comstitution, It is your duty to be were you are supposed to be and on time. I havnt done that on numerous occations and I should. If you are late for a mission it could hurt the success of that mission. It could put the lives of your fellow sldiers at risk. If you are not on time you may also miss a formation and miss important information that is put out. Not only does accountability matter in formation it is also important to have accountability of all your weapons and sensitive items. Being late is not tolerated in the army, it hurts the unit and the mission. When a soldier is late to anything it hurts everybody. The unit can not function as a whole if one part of it is missing and by being late that one soldier has now disrupted the entire unit.
Respect
Respect in the military is easy to keep but it is also easy to loos. Respect is earned in the military, you must earn the respect of the soldiers in your squad, platoon, company, and in the military as a whole. You also need to respect others. You expecialy need to respect those appointed over

    Army Values-Integrity

    By consistently doing the right thing and showing no favoritism we improve ourselves, our fellow soldiers, and the Army as a whole. Integrity improves everyone by making sure that everyone can expect equal treatment and not fear a mistake or a supervisor’s mood. We improve ourselves by building pride in doing what is right and overcoming obstacles whether they be pear pressure or just fear. We also build a reputation that will last a lifetime and reinforce the personal courage to do what we feel is right. Our fellow soldiers are improved because they know what to expect and do not have to worry will I be destroyed because he was in a bad mood or will I get off easy because he likes me. Integrity also improves the moral of soldiers knowing that their fellow soldiers will do right thing and take care of each other no matter how hard that is. The Army is improved because the general character of soldiers is increased and we do not force good soldiers to quite or become bad soldiers because they grew fed-up with arbitrary and inconsistent decisions.…

    Treat people as they should be treated.

Respect is trusting that all people have done their jobs and fulfilled their duty. And self-respect is a vital ingredient with the Army value of respect, which results from knowing you have put forth your best effort. The Army is one team and each of us has something to contribute.…

    Appointed Place of Duty 1

    It is always important to be where you are supposed to be. In the Army, every leader stresses the fact on being on time or being at the right place or being in the right uniform. So if you have to ask yourself is it important to be where you are told to be? I think most Soldiers and Leaders will tell you that it is very important. It is my responsibility to be where I am supposed to be. It is all about accountability. You have to keep track of your Soldiers. It is my responsibility and my leader's responsibility. They are responsible for my actions as well you. In the articles of military justice a Soldier can be charged Appointed with Article 86 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), 10 U.S.C. 86, makes it a crime to fail to go to one's appointed place of duty at the time prescribed, to leave one's place of duty, or to be absent from one's unit without authority. There is tremendous discretion vested in a military commander to determine what, if anything, to do about a particular violation. Often a first transgression is dealt with by minor punishment, such as loss of leave, privileges, or extra work assignments. More aggravated cases may result in administrative discharge rather than by referral to court-martial. Intentional behavior, such as coming in late to miss deploying with his unit to an unpleasant location, can result in an unpleasant court martial. This is further in detail of what the charges are: 1) Failure to go to appointed place of duty. (a) That a certain authority appointed a certain time and place of duty for the accused; (b) That the accused knew of that time and place; and (c) That the accused, without authority, failed to go to the appointed place of duty at the time prescribed. (2) Going from appointed place of duty. (a) That a certain authority appointed a certain time and place of duty for the accused; (b) That the accused knew of that time and place; and (c) That…

    Army Accountability

    The definition of accountability comes from the state of being accountable; liability to be called on to render an account; the obligation to bear the consequences for failure to perform as expected; accountableness. The importance of being on time accounted for is because lets say that you do not come back to formation after you go out on a convoy then they know that you are missing. If you do not show up and you do not respond on the radio there is going to possibly be a search team for you. If they do send a search team for then that puts that entire team at risk while looking for you. Point of accountability formation is to make sure all of your soldiers are there and that they are all accounted for. If one person is not accounted for then the entire formation does not leave. It is not just the fact that everyone is accounted for it is part of your military duty to be at formation and at movement. If you do not make it to formation or movement it is punishable by UCMJ. It could be the end of your career. Not only will it ruin everything that you have gone through and wasted your time but you are also letting your buddies down and if you can not show up to formation what makes you think that they can trust you in being there in the time of need. If you can not be there then what is your team going to think when they hear over the radio that you are on the way and you are the only one that can help them. They are going to be like what that is the only person we have well we are al good as dead. Accountability does not end in the army life it also goes into civilian world. When you have a job in the civilian world they are looking for someone that can be on time and do the job but the second that you are not on time your accountability starts to go down the drain.…

    Respect in the Military

    Respect, especially in the Army is a very important value to live by. It is much more than just talking kindly and listening to someone. It is the process of taking into consideration someone’s emotions, feelings and needs. You must also focus on their ideas, thoughts, and preferences. It is showing someone that you value their time; that you care what they have to say. Showing someone respect allows that person to know and acknowledge that you are tracking them and that you comprehend and believe in what they are saying, It is important to allow someone to feel your respect for them. It will ease the conversation and create trust. Behavior and attitude will allow the person demanding respect to feel that respect. When we respect each other, there are fewer conflicts. People get along easier and avoid the un-necessary drama associated with a lack of respect. For those of us in the military, this is very important.…

    Respecting an NCO

    We are taught the golden rule in elementary school; do unto others what you would have done to yourself. That is the short version of respect. If it is engrained into our minds at such a young age why is it so easy for people to forget what it means, or forget how to show respect? Yes, respect is earned. As a private I have not really earned anyone's respect, in turn I have not done anything to lose anyone's respect either. Speaking as such, I should be treated on a mutual ground. If I respect you, I deserve to be treated as well as I treat you. In the Army that is not a right that is mandatory. NCOs can treat you however they please because they have earned the respect of their peers, seniors and subordinates alike. Almost every NCO I have ever met has treated me with unwaivering kindness and respect, until I mess that up. Respect is…

    The Importance of Not Lying

    I define loyalty as the willingness of a person to sacrifice at their own personal expense in order to protect, uphold, defend and edify those persons, ideals and/or things which they cherish most. The amount of loyalty a person feels towards someone or something determines how much they are willing to sacrifice for them. As a soldier, we are called upon to sacrifice every aspect of our lives - the physical, the mental, the emotional and the spiritual - in order to protect, uphold, defend and edify the U.S. constitution, the Army, our fellow soldiers and the nation and heritage (all those things about America that we have fought and died to achieve as a country; our structure of government, our laws and our freedoms, our prosperity) of our homeland. Our sacrifices demonstrate our loyalty…

    Importance of Orders

    Respect is neither a right nor a privilege. It is something that you earn over time through your actions. Though in the army it is expected of all lower enlisted to respect in what I would call the new definition of the word which is a type of fear that is implanted into the new soldiers. Earned respect builds a stronger relationship between people, can be more specific then demanded respect, and is more stable than demanded respect. Also, true respect must be built on experience, and therefore it is not right to just demand it. Earned respect builds relationship…
