Which list shows the seven Army Core Values in the correct order?

• A. Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, Personal Courage
• B. Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Integrity, Honor, Personal Courage
• C. Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, Personal Courage
• D. Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Courage, Integrity

Answer: (A)

The seven Army Core Values are defined in a specific sequence that reflects how a service member should prioritize character in daily conduct and leadership. Start with Loyalty, which binds you to the people and the mission; then Duty, the obligation to fulfill your responsibilities; and Respect, treating others with dignity as you work with them. Selfless Service follows, highlighting putting the welfare of the nation, the Army, and your team above personal gains. Next comes Honor, focusing on trustworthy conduct and upholding moral standards, then Integrity, the consistency of doing what’s right even when it’s difficult. Finally, Personal Courage represents the bravery to uphold all these values in the face of fear or adversity. Therefore, the only option that lists the values in this exact order—Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, Personal Courage—is the correct one. The other choices shift Integrity, Honor, or Courage out of their official positions, which breaks the established sequence.
