Duty with honour : the profession of arms in Canada.: D2-150/2009E-PDF

"This manual describes the profession of arms in Canada for the benefit of members of the Canadian Forces (CF) and indeed all citizens. It presents the theoretical and philosophical underpinnings of the profession, shows how in practice it serves Canada and Canadian interests, and codifies, for the first time, what it means to be a Canadian military professional. Such a summary will help members of the CF fully understand their essential contribution to the security and well-being of their fellow citizens. Based on the profession's unique role of providing for the ordered application of lawful military force in accordance with government direction, this contribution must reflect the highest standards of military professionalism"--Foreword, page 2.
