Why a Navy Ethos and not a Warrior Ethos?
In the Chief of Naval Operations’ guidance for 2009, he places a significant emphasis on Navy civilians because of everything they do for the Navy. The Navy Ethos captures the entire spectrum of activities of Sailors and civilians, moving beyond the narrow focus of the Warrior Ethos and expanding it to the broader umbrella of all who serve the United States Navy regardless of background, personal experience, or position.
