values are the foundation to the phase one mission. phase one is for you only when you are ready to reflect on your own values-to test what matters most when you are tempted to give up. values ensure the phase one mission leaves a lasting impact. physical strength fades, but the values forged in challenge forever remain.if you leave a mission with clarity and hope for a brighter tomorrow, phase one succeeded.

core values

compassion-concern for the suffering
we train and endure together, leading from love-for ourselves, one another. no one left behind

integrity-the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles
we do what is right, not easy

courage-the ability to do something that frightens one.
we are not afraid to break down for the purpose of progress. what can be rebuilt if it is not broken?

resilience-the capacity to withstand or to recover quickly from difficulties
transformation begins at the starting line of difficulty 

adaptability-quality of being able to adjust to new conditions
where hurt and discomfort collide, healing begins
