I call it the glue that hold the ranks together. NCOs also give the soldiers direction and purpose. When I say direction I mean if there is a task or mission to do the NCO will give the mission to the soldiers and tell them what needs to get done and how to do it.

otherwise soldiers would not listen to the NCOs or orders that are given to uphold a mission. Upholding the mission is always the main priority for all units‚ and respect is always a factor in accomplishment of the mission and it also gives moral and builds team work among soldiers and non-commission officers alike.

Lying is wrong period not just to an NCO. It is more wrong because these are the people you are suppose to go to if you are in trouble
