<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You start from scratch, start with yourself.<br>Get your Soldiers into the field and lead from the front.<br>Value added training.<br>Tales of history and heritage, Blackhawk Down, Operation Anaconda, MoH recipients...<br>re-enact squad and PLT level engagements and discuss lessons learned.<br>And above all, False motivation is better than no motivation. Fake it til you make it.<br>

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I don't accept your premise that soldiers today lack the respect for "the profession of arms."  I see new soldiers coming into the Army and after accounting for the generational shift, I find they behave in pretty much the same manner I did 18 years ago.
