 MILITARY PROFESSIONALISM
BY: CHARLES MC DE GAULLE

Men who adopt the profession of arms

• Submit of their own free will

• To a law of perpetual constraint.

• Of their own accord, they reject their right to live where they choose,

• To say what they think,

• To dress as they like.

• From the moment they become soldiers,

• It needs but an order to settle them in this place, to move them to that,

• To separate from their family and dislocate their normal lives.

• In the word of command, they must rise, march, run, endure bad weather, go without sleep or food, be isolated
in some distant post, work until they drop.

• They have ceased to be the master of their fate. If they drop in their tracks,

• If their ashes are scattered to the four winds, that is all part and parcel of their job.
 LOYALTY PLEDGE
BY: ELBERT KIM HUBBARD
If you work for a man
In heavens name, work for him,.
Speak well of him,
And stand with the institution which he represents.
Remember, an ounce of loyalty
Is worth more than a pound of cleverness.
If you must growl, condemn,
And eternally find fault,
Why resign to your position?
But when you are on the outside,
Damn to your heart’s content. 
But as long as you are a part of the institution, Do not condemn it.
For you do,
The first high wind that comes along
Will blow you away
And probably you will never know why.
