 The military profession at the end of the day is about people. And the primary difference between success and failure on and off the battlefield has historically been about the human. It's been about the human, not about the hardware. I believe you can primarily attribute any success that we've had in the battlefield in our history the actions of individual sailors, soldiers, airmen, and Marines. Dear willingness to go out day after day and do what must be done has made the difference. And that willingness didn't come from doctrine, techniques, or new weapons systems or equipment. The will to endure when the mission is tough. The willingness to put yourself at risk. To put the needs of your wingman ahead of your own. All that comes from intangibles. A World War I Marine described those intangibles as such things as regiments hand down forever. And of course I'm referring to qualities like courage, honor, commitment, loyalty, and selflessness.
