Why is there not an "Army Values" chapter?

I've searched the regulations, and I've asked colleagues and cohorts, and there doesn't seem to be a Values chapter. I think there should be, if there truly isn't. Who wants a soldier in their command that can't maintain the Army Values? It's basic courtesy, when you think about it. If a soldier can't maintain basic courtesy, do they really need to be in our profession?

Article 134

Chapter 14-12 B pattern of misconduct
Chapter 14-12 c one single serious misconduct

My question is if there was an "Army Values Chapter" how would you document the behavior? I mean think about it, these are all the untangaible. I think Article 134 Ch 14-12B or 12C is the best you'll find. Writing a new chapter might just be to tricky.

I really like this Thread, I was thinking: If they were able to create such a Chapter, It should only be used for NCO's. we don't counsel our Soldiers on Army Values, we use the Army Values in our Counselings get Soldiers to behave as The Code of Conduct and perspective Regulations require. I mean if we as NCOs can get rated on the Values, shouldn't those Leaders who are not Upholding or living the Army Values be able to be Chaptered for it?
