PRINCIPLES AND VIRTUES

“Respect is Earned, not given”
- Unknown

Members of the Organization follow basic ideals and principles that lay the foundation of what it means to be a member of the Tenth. These virtues not only help reinforce the Warrior Ethos, but layout in such plain terms what is expected of one's self.

THE NINE NOBLE VIRTUES

Courage
The ability to stand firm in the face of danger and do what needs to be done

Truth
The commitment to speak truth always, so that all will know your determination

Loyalty
The binding force that binds brothers-in-arms and the pride in their glorious history

Valor
The strength of mind, spirit, and determination in the face of overwhelming odds

Discipline
The training of the mind and one’s character, habit, and self-control

Industriousness
The act of hard work, diligence, and skillful progression in all one’s fields

Self Reliance
The drive to achieve with one’s own hands, be independent, and get things done

Perseverance
The continued effort to do, achieve and overcome despite failure or opposition

Honor
The combination of all other virtues before it, that uniquely defines one’s character


It is by these principles that members of the Organization are not only able to dominate the battlespace, but are able to excel in both development of one’s community and in one’s character.
