520 _aBeyond their resemblance, how can “morale” and “morality,” be linked? When addressing the topic of “moral force,” this is the question raised, provoked by a measure of reticence from some who are often foreign to the military world. The first link observed may seem paradoxical: on the first level, morale resulting from high consistency between the values referenced and the action that will be taken, fits better with amorality—that of cynical pragmatism, the path of immorality, for example, Nazism—than our ethical references of civilization. You must, nonetheless, go farther: the objectively antagonistic demands of military effectiveness and humanist moral references can only be rendered by a morality—itself demanding—of the exercise of the profession of arms. It is the responsibility of the leaders to live it, promote it, and thus, beyond emotions, nourish morale in their subordinates.
