Success

Success, up to the limits of one's innate abilities, is available to all:

- who dedicate themselves to their career,
- who are willing to work long and hard to prepare themselves,
- who recognize and develop the high character necessary to successful leadership,
- who love their fellow humans and show concern for their well-being, and
- who can communicate with other officers in a manner that inspires confidence and devotion to duty.
