The Sins and Saints Honor Treatise
As the Ministry of Defense we cherish the diverse backgrounds and talents of every human, yet recognize the common thread that unites: the trust and confidence of all persons without regard to race, sex, or nationality. They have appointed us to defend our country by developing our minds, our bodies and most especially, our moral character.
It is our responsibility to develop a selfless sense of duty that demands excellence both of ourselves, and of those with whom we serve. We must honor our loyalties without compromising our ultimate obligation to the truth. Our leadership must set a standard that reflects loyalty to our goals, and the courage to stand accountable for all our actions; both those that lead to success and to those that end in failure. We will never settle for achieving merely what is expected of us, but will strive for a standard of excellence that reflects the dedication and courage of those who have gone before us. When we attain our goal, we will raise our expectations; when we fall short, we will rise up and try again. In essence, we espouse leadership by example, a leadership that will inspire others to follow, wherever we may lead.
Countless challenges and trials lie before us. We believe that those with the strongest moral foundation will be leaders who best reflect the legacy of the Ministry of Defense.
This is our call as soldiers, airmen, marines, and sailors; it is a mission we proudly accept.
