Scenario: The military are teaching valuable and outstanding courses that are going to contribute to the welfare of our Army for years to come. However, we are also teaching lessons that are going to be lost because of the lowering of this standard. One of these requirements of a leader includes maintaining your physical fitness. When we deploy, we rely on the person to our left and right to do their part. Despite this, we allow students to graduate without passing a physical fitness test and eventually deploy.
Question: As with many standards, in many organizations, one will see them sometimes ignored, sometimes violated; and, of course, there are clear moral objections to these, if they are genuinely to be upheld as standards. Would you describe the situation here as one of hypocrisy, stating that these are values that hold for all and then these sames standards not holding for all?
