I'm not entirely sure. Whatever sort of moral process I have running it seems to be going on in the background. I don't often find myself wondering whether or not something I'm about to do is "good" or "bad" or "right" or "wrong". Most of that is done in retrospect...lol. Thankfully I have a pattern (if we're judging by what those around me think of me) of doing the "right" thing, at least enough to keep my loved ones near me and my happy ass out of jail.

So I have that going for me, which is nice.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
