- 1. Multiple Choice
One of your friends applies the Army Values only when they benefit him. Even though your instructor regularly reinforces application of the Army Values, your friend continues to apply them only for his own needs. You also tried to talk to him, but his answer is always "I'll deal with it when I have to." You know that today he is going to have a serious ethical dilemma and will learn a hard lesson. As a loyal friend, what can you do to best help him learn the meaning and purpose of values?
Since your instructor keeps reinforcing them and you already talked to him, you have to let him learn about the purpose and meaning of values when he is faced with the dilemma.
Tell him about the dilemma he's about to have so that he can be ready for it, even if it means he can apply the Army Values to help him avoid it.
Even if he'll be mad at you for not telling him, let him learn the right (and hard) things about values.
Before his dilemma occurs, talk to him about the meaning and purpose of values so that it is fresh in his mind, even if he later realizes that you knew about it ahead of time.

In an Army JROTC competition, the scores are so close that one point could mean winning or losing. On the final event, a written test, you got the lowest possible grade without failing.

You have an ethical dilemma, and telling him he made a mistake will cause you to fail and could cause your squad to lose. Think about the Army Values and your personal values. What should you do? What do you stand to gain?
Remain loyal to your squad and don't say anything; your squad could win the competition.
Remain loyal to your squad by informing the teacher of his mistake after the competition is over; more loyalty from your squad mates.
Maintain your integrity and inform the teacher of his mistake, even if it means your squad loses; gain the respect of your competitors, instructor, and eventually, your squad.
