Exam Questions and CORRECT Answers
We obtain our values through the influence of our ________, ________, and ________ with
earlier experiences having more of an effect than later experiences. - CORRECT
ANSWER✔✔- Parents, teachers, and peers
Attitudes are not as deeply held as values. - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- True
CATEGORIES - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Values are organized into the following five
categories:
•Political values

CHARACTER - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Our character is defined by "...the commitment
to an admirable set of values, and the courage to manifest those values in one's life, no matter
the cost in terms of personal success or popularity." (Sorely, 1989)
VALUES AND LEADERSHIP - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- If a Marine is left without any
guidance or supervision, then personal values will determine what that Marine will or will not
do.
Leaders must provide guidance and supervision to inspire and reinforce organizational values
to have an effect on the behavior of our Marines.
IDENTIFYING WITH PEERS VICE UNIT - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- When there is a
breakdown in vertical cohesion within the parent command, Marines only identify with their
peers and not with their unit. Marines in a group or section are only loyal to those Marines
within the immediate group.
IMPACT ON UNIT SUCCESS - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Some Marines fail to make the
connection between group objectives and command mission. Failing to understand the impact
,they have on the operation of the unit causes a disassociation from the unit and the Marine
Corps.
INSUFFICIENT CHALLENGES - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Many Marines joined the
Corps to be challenged to the fullest extent of their capabilities. Disillusionment occurs if
their units have low individual expectations.
INEFFECTIVE MENTORS - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- When new Marines check into a
unit, they are looking to others to confirm accepted behaviors. Without a proper mentor, a
Marine may choose a negative role model simply because of a dominant personality.
LACK OF MARINE CORPS STANDARDS - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- A witnessed
deviation from, and a lack of adherence to, required standards leaves a negative opinion of
both the command and the leadership. If Marines are continually exposed to such an
environment, their standards will begin to suffer as their expectations and sense of
accomplishment dwindle.
INSUFFICIENT DISCIPLINE - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Discipline is degraded when
commands relax standards, whether traditional customs or published regulations. All Marines
are responsible for and capable of enforcing good discipline.
CONFLICT RESOLUTION - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- The best and most important way
to resolve conflicting values is through leadership by example.
A Marine's sense of pride in who they are stems from a dedication to our ________. -
CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Organizational values
As a leader, it is your job to sustain organizational values, set the example, and guide the way

MENTAL COURAGE - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Just before the Battle of Thermoplyae, a
Spartan warrior named Dienekes was told that the Persian archers could blank out the sun
with their arrows. He replied "Good, then we shall have our battle in the shade." Spartans
were mentally prepared for war from a young age.
MORAL COURAGE - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- In 1968, CWO Hugh Thompson was
flying a support mission over My Lai when he realized something was terribly wrong. U.S.
soldiers were slaughtering hundreds of unarmed civilians. With great moral courage
Thompson landed his helicopter between the U.S. soldiers and the villagers and ordered his
crew to train their weapons on the U.S. troops. He rescued 16 civilians calling in additional
helicopter support to evacuate them. He would later report the incident to his chain of
command.
PHYSICAL COURAGE - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- In early 2004 while serving on the
Iraqi border with Syria, Jason Dunham's platoon was checking vehicles in conjunction with
an attack on their PSD element. One of the drivers became combative, and Jason was
engaged in hand-to-hand combat when the driver dropped an armed grenade in the midst of
the Marines. Jason covered the grenade with his own helmet and used himself to shield his
platoon members. This great physical courage saved the lives of those closest to him.
TRAINING AND COURAGE - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Courage is not a chance gift of
nature. It is developed through hard realistic training and unit cohesion that brings about a
special bond amongst its members.
