I mean, I read the piece that you're talking about with the young woman.
Everybody struggles with that conundrum of when do you step up?
When do you hold your tongue?
And I think everybody finds that sometime in their life, it's hard to do.
And they're kind of fraught and caught in a dynamic of, do I speak up or just stay quiet?
We all have to deal with that.
That's not a military value, but it is.
I mean, it's something we teach them.
Personal courage is not just what we do on a battlefield by...
throwing ourselves on a grenade or facing the enemy.
It's also providing, especially at the general officer level, providing input to our civilian masters, you know, whether or not they want to hear it.
So yeah, personal courage is a big deal, I think, for all of us.
And it came through in this young woman.
Well, you have to identify, first of all, what your values are.
And that's one thing I find talking to most classes is they haven't even thought about it.
What are the things you truly believe in?
And how do you approach those on the street?
Personal courage can get you in trouble.
You got to sometimes hold your tongue or find a more polite way to say things.
So it requires a lot of thing in terms of your character build.
