What is well disciplined to one is lacking to another. There needs to be a clear discussion upon arrival to the unit from the commander on what he wants to see.

Could not agree more. Leaders (all of us) come in with our ideas and our assumptions but sometimes struggle to make that clear in our in-briefs and then issues occur when the first friction points begin to appear and both sides are frustrated over how the other either is not communicating well with them or not doing what they want them to do. Getting all leaders to lay out a clear vision (not some beautifully worded monograph but his/her beliefs and expectations) would I think help ensure that the Soldiers, NCO’s and JO’s understand their commander better. You then constantly follow that up during your safety briefs, motor pool Monday formations, ceremonies and training meetings. Constant reinforcement will build cohesion.
