Moral courage is the ability to act rightly in the face of popular
opposition, or discouragement. This includes the willingness to stand up for what one
believes to be right even if that stand is unpopular or contrary to conventional wisdom.
This involves risk taking, tenacity, and accountability.
Integrity is the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles. Integrity is the bedrock of our character and the cornerstone for building trust. Trust is an essential trait among Service members—trust by seniors in the abilities of their subordinates and by juniors in the competence and support of their seniors. American Service members must be able to rely on each other, regardless of the challenge at hand; they must individually and collectively say what they mean, and do what they say.
