Proper Military and Professional Bearing, Order, Discipline, and Respect IAW AR 600-20 & FM 6-22 1. Military Discipline a. Military discipline is founded upon self-discipline, respect for properly constituted authority, and the embracing of the professional Army ethic with its supporting individual values. Military discipline will be developed by individual and group training to create a mental attitude resulting in proper conduct and prompt obedience to lawful military authority. b. While military discipline is the result of effective training, it is affected by every feature of military life. It is manifested in individuals and units by cohesion, bonding, and a spirit of teamwork; by smartness of appearance and action; …show more content…
Those exercising this authority should do so with judgment and tact. Personnel so apprehended will be returned to the jurisdiction of their respective Service as soon as practical. Confinement of females will be according to AR 190–47. 6. Exercising Military Authority a. Military authority is exercised promptly, firmly, courteously and fairly. Commanders should consider administrative corrective measures before deciding to impose nonjudicial punishment. Trial by court-martial is ordinarily inappropriate for minor offenses unless lesser forms of administering discipline would be ineffective (see MCM, Part V, and chap 3, AR 27–10). b. One of the most effective administrative corrective measures is extra training or instruction (including on-the-spot correction). For example, if Soldiers appear in an improper uniform, they are required to correct it immediately; if they do not maintain their housing area properly, they must correct the deficiency in a timely manner. If Soldiers have training deficiencies, they will be required to take extra training or instruction in subjects directly related to the shortcoming. (1) The training, instruction, or correction given to a Soldier to correct deficiencies must be directly related to the deficiency. It must be oriented to improving the Soldier’s performance in his or her problem area. Corrective measures may be taken after normal duty hours. Such measures assume the nature of training or instruction, not
Military bearing is the root in which every soldier practices in order to carry out good discipline and ethics throughout ones military career. Army regulations and soldiers on our own creed illustrate how a military service member should conduct themselves on a daily basis, on and off duty. Loyalty, duty, respect, commitment, honor, punctuality, reliable, integrity, and personal courage are Army core values.

Stewardship of the Army Profession is the last of the Five Essential Characteristics of the Army Profession, but in terms of importance, it is just as, if not more important than the other four. The United States Army’s ADRP-1, or Army Doctrinal Reference Publication 1, even defines stewardship as “the responsibility of Army professionals to ensure the profession maintains its five essential characteristics now and into the future”. Such importance is placed on this characteristic because Stewardship of the Army Profession is the one that ensures the other four are maintained. I sought out the definition of stewardship because despite having spent almost three and a half years and West Point, I was not entirely sure what the doctrine behind Stewardship was. In doing this, I felt like I was better prepared for both this paper and ensuring that the corrections I made were stewarding the profession. With this newly acquired knowledge, I set out to make my corrections.
The Army Profession encompasses teams of individual Soldiers, with different technical abilities and education, who work together within a unit, a command, the Army as a whole for a common goal of achieving the mission. The Army Profession depends not only on good leadership but also good followers. Each individual Soldier needs to be able to lead and follow in order to collectively work together towards the collective result.
Military Schools are often use to punish and correct the behavior of unruly children. These schools normally straighten children out but they do it by changing the way students think. Military schools instill a discipline into everyday life. “Discipline creates order, order creates results”. Discipline may be seen as a form of punishment but there are good and bad forms of discipline. Military schools use forms of
Extra training or instruction may be conducted after duty hours. 3–4. Personal exercise of discretion (para 1d(2), part V, MCM) a. A commander will personally exercise discretion in the nonjudicial punishment process by— (1) Evaluating the case to determine whether proceedings under Article 15 should be initiated. (2) Determining whether the soldier committed the offense(s) where Article 15 proceedings are initiated and the soldier does not demand trial by court-martial. (3) Determining the amount and nature of any punishment, if punishment is appropriate. b. No superior may direct that a subordinate authority impose punishment under Article 15 or issue regulations, orders, or so-called “guides” that either directly or indirectly suggest to subordinate commanders that— (1) Certain categories of offenders or offenses should be disposed of by punishment under Article 15. (2) Predetermined kinds or amounts of punishment should be imposed for certain categories of offenders or offenses. c. A superior commander may send or return a case to a subordinate for appropriate disposition if necessary and within the jurisdiction of the subordinate. A superior commander may also reserve personally, or to the superior commander’s delegate, the right to exercise Article 15 authority over a particular case or over certain categories of offenders or offenses (para 3–7d). 3–5. Reference to superior a. See R.C.M. 306(b). Nonjudicial punishment should be administered
Discipline is composed of integrity, tact and bearing. Like other students , I show integrity when I take test or a coach ask if I have completed all the exercises. I also exhibit integrity when I have to take points from another MCJROTC cadet's grade , even if they are a friend. Tact is the ability to communicate without causing offence and bearing is the ability to maintain composure. I exhibit these when helping fellow swimmers. This shows my discipline because I conduct myself professionally at all
What is a Profession of Arms? It is someone who is in a compensated occupation that involves prolonged training. These professionals are typically referred to as a Subject Matter Expert (SME) in their field of work. Professions do not get that title overnight and it is not given. They work efficiently and effectively to learn their profession in order to ethically take care of soldiers. A professional is passionate about their work and it is considered a calling rather than, a job. An American professional Soldier in the Army profession of arms requires expertise, trust, and values as a solid framework. “Professions earn the trust of their clients through their Ethic – which is their means of motivation and self-control.” (p. 2).
For instance, a 25Q MOS works on Satellite communications. The expectation for the Soldier in AIT is to complete a curriculum that includes Signal Theory, Basic Electronics, and operation and maintenance of all satellite equipment that the United States Army fields today. Before this Soldier even arrives at his or her first unit, this Soldier will have passed 3 different curriculums, qualifying him or her to serve in their prescribed role. The moment Soldiers enters their first field problem they participate in, the expectation of them is to perform their duties effectively. Any true professional should be able to put his or her training to use in everyday experiences on the job. Senior leaders utilize tools such as checklists, standard operating procedure manuals, and their own applied experiences to reinforce Soldiers strengths, and improve their weaknesses. Any profession provides this kind of feedback to all employees in order to encourage employees to grow in their careers. There is never a moment in a Soldier’s military career where their training comes to a halt; for many it has only just
As senior leaders, we should ensure that Soldiers are taught discipline to mature and grow in their required skills and knowledge. Once a Soldier becomes insubordinate, a leader should correct the issue before it becomes a
Anticipating defilement totally is a difficult request. On the other hand, steps can be taken to lessen it altogether. There are a couple of principal thoughts that can be actualized that can control defilement. The three regions that need consideration are the officer preparing, individual characters, and the motivating forces program.

First, being at the military helped to developed discipline skills. For example, one of my cousin's friend when we was 18 he was chose to serve as a military, his parents were agree because he was one of the problematic kids so they send him to the military service.

Discipline means follow rules to be worked hard by someone in the interest of teaching something to the student. Discipline is taught in many places in many ways. I was taught discipline at a school that studied the art of taekwondo. This school helped me with my shyness and confidence problem. Without Euns Martial Arts Center I would not be the person I am today. My first year of taekwondo taught me the meaning of discipline. Joining this school was one the best decisions I ever made.
Transitioning from the civilian life into the military life style is not an easy task. Even though there are many steps put in place within the system to ease that transition, sometimes individuals struggle to adapt. Furthermore, even after individuals successfully integrate into the military life style, there are occasions where they do not meet standards. As a consequence, I found the model discipline (DM) to be the most valuable lesson principle in module seven. More specifically, I found the DM arena 1- prevention principle to be the key aspect within the DM principle. Hence, the popular idiom “it is better to prevent than to cure”.
