TRUST AND TRUSTWORTHINESS
Ethics, leadership, and policy should converge in supporting small unit , but often they do not. Trust, trustworthiness, and a sense of belonging are rarely even seen as the ethical goods that they are, because they are so hard to package in the legalisms and moralisms that have come to dominate ethical discourse. Similarly, a great deal of leadership energy goes into reacting to attempted and completed suicides and into improving rates of reenlistment. Suicide prevention and reenlistment would seem to be utterly disparate matters—very odd to be mentioned in the same sentence.Professional ignorance is the mortal enemy of command integrity.
