CNO Guidance 2009 and Navy Ethos

The CNO released his Guidance Document for 2009 [Executing our Maritime Strategy] and a new Navy Ethos.

According to ADM Roughead, the purpose of the Guidance “reaffirms the vision, mission, guiding principles and focus areas articulated in the 2008 Guidance and provides additional context for the 18 intentions” and the "Navy Ethos is who we are. It describes our character. It describes our values. It describes what we believe. And as a Navy it captures our character and says it very clearly.”
