Prologue: Cheerful obedience leads to a better performance of your duties. It makes it easier for all of your comrades to do their part. It means better teamwork.

Be loyal: Loyalty means that you must stand by your organization through thick and thin. Boost your organization at every opportunity. Be loyal and true to your officers, your noncommissioned officers, and your comrades. In this way you will be loyal to your country.

Be Determined: Determination means the bulldog stick-to-it-iveness to win at all costs. During your training keep everlastingly at the most difficult tasks and never give up until you have mastered them. Determination to win means success in battle.

Be Alert: Alertness means being always on your guard. A good soldier may be pardoned for failure but never for being surprised. Should the un-expected happen, use your head and do something, even if it is wrong, rather than " lie down."

Be a Team Member: Teamwork means that each man in the squad, platoon company, troop, or battery gives everything in his power to make for the success of the whole unit. Success in battle depends on teamwork just as much as success in a football game depends on the pull-together spirit of the football team. Unless you play your own special part the team may not win.
