Teaching and Developing Character in the Armed Forces
by - LtCol Ron Huggler
What is the best way to teach/develop character in an Armed Force? The purpose of this poster paper is to address this question. My premise will be that values based character development is the best method to form strong character among an Armed Force. My conclusion, up front, will be: A thorough understanding, acceptance, and use of a set of values, gotten from beyond human reason and experience, will enable a soldier to make the best moral and ethical decisions, resulting in an Armed Force of strong character.
