DUTY Duty. One simple word; one awe- some responsibility. An internalized sense of duty distinguishes an out- standing leader from a mediocre time and personnel manager. Each cadet must personally develop duty, the Academy merely provides the foun- dation. Duty motivates leaders to do what is expected of them to the best of their ability at all times, regardless of the situation. “Do your duty in all things, you can- not do more, you should never want to do less.” -General Robert E. Lee “But an officer on duty knows no one- -to be partial is to dishonor both him- self and the object of his ill-advised favor. What will be thought of him who exacts of his friends that which disgraces him? Look at him who winks at and overlooks offenses in one, which he causes to be punished in another, and contrast him with the inflexible soldier who does his duty faithfully, notwithstanding it occa- sionally wars with his private feel- ings.

It requires complete integrity in both word and deed of all of the Corps and permits no deviation from these standards. The maintenance of these high ethical stan- dards is the responsibility of each ca- det. Strict adherence to professional, ethical, and moral codes is essential if American military forces are to be ef- fective servants of the nation. 9
