From the early days of naval service dating all the way back to Oct 13, 1775, certain bedrock principles or core values have carried the United States Navy till this day and many years to come. They consist of three basic principles. These three core values are Honor, Courage, and Commitment. They play a vital role every single time you put on your uniform and lace up your boots you are setting yourself to the standards of the navy which they taught you from P-days day one in boot camp. Boot camp has prepared us for what we can expect in the United States navy (for the most part), and most definitely how to treat one another with and without regards to rank.

Fulfill or exceed our legal and ethical responsibilities in our public and personal lives. We were trained to have integrity (to do the right thing when no one is looking), and even when someone is looking we have the respect training knowledge and courtesy to do the right thing all the time. People are always looking at us even when you do not see them or think that they are watching. Integrity goes a long way to prove your honor, and your shipmates and fellow people will see that and I’ve learned that whether you know it or not they feed off of you. So if you are a positive role model and set a perfect example of not only honor but courage and commitment it carries you a long way and you will mold an impression that others will never forget. So the next time you see a sailor who is not or potentially not living up to the navy’s core value talk to them tell them to do the right thing it could save someone’s life or save them from a handful of trouble. In this business you cannot have honor without trust. The navy is a hard working job and others lives are in your hand. If you don’t have honor no one is going to want to trust you with their …show more content…
To Care for the safety and well-being of our people, And to be willing to make positive changes and constant improvement. We are all committed to excellence and the fair treatment of all. That means we commit to do our jobs the correct way and fight to accomplish getting the job done. We commit to equal opportunity because no matter our nationality or ethnic background we are all equal and are all a part of one team to accomplish the mission. We’ve all raised our right hand and generally sworn to protect our country and to abide by the rules appointed over us, that took every ounce of commitment possible because only 1% of America serves their country. So as Americans we are already stacked against the odds to serve, and each and every person in this room is that 1%. We are all obligated to commit to defending freedom and democracy around the world and that amazes me. There are roughly 7 and a half billion people on earth. Roughly 322 million live here in America, so if you do the math that is not a lot of people. This is why we are held to the navy standards and core values of Honor, Courage, and
