Lying to Ourselves: Dishonesty in the Army Profession: Dishonesty in the Army Profession

Autor Leonard Wong Editat de Strategic Studies Institute (U.S.), Army War College (U.S.) Autor Stephen J. Gerras Cuvânt înainte de Jr. Douglas C. Lovelace
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 sep 2016 – vârsta de la 18 ani
Untruthfulness is surprisingly common in the U.S. military even though members of the profession are loath to admit it. Further, much of the deception and dishonesty that occurs in the profession of arms is actually encouraged and sanctioned by the military institution. The end result is a profession whose members often hold and propagate a false sense of integrity that prevents the profession from addressing—or even acknowledging—the duplicity and deceit throughout the formation. It takes remarkable courage and candor for leaders to admit the gritty shortcomings and embarrassing frailties of the military, as an organization, in order to better the military as a profession. Such a discussion, however, is both essential and necessary for the health of the military profession.
