| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article reproduces the address given at the formal September 2007
launch of the Corbett Centre for Maritime Policy Studies. It explores the
challenges of promoting an ethos that must be closely tied to the society
from which the Royal Navy recruits but which must also be in some ways
distinct, due to the unique warfighting role of the armed forces. This ethos
is central to the Royal Navy's ability to perform its required roles in Afghanistan
and Iraq, as well as in its other, widely ranging responsibilities ranging
from warfighting to peace support and humanitarian operations. The
central elements of this ethos are moral and physical courage, teamwork
and, in particular, leadership |
