According to Gordonator's post:
The motto of SWI is 'We Live', which is the philosophy SWI will
use to train and motivate the WOSPEC to live Our Army's values, the
Army experience and to complete the mission.
So Basically they want specs and WOs to 'live' the army
values... Again, very mediocre. I would have thought that was
expected of everyone in the army, regardless if you are a soldier,
spec, WO, or officer.
The rest of the post do not make sense. What sort of motto tells
you to 'live' to complete the mission or to 'live' the army
experience?
From the post, however, we can see that specfore's guess is more or
less correct.
The pitch for my suggestion would be: It outlines the -ideal-
WO/spec: He is first and foremost an excellent Soldier, proficient
in all aspects of soldiery. However, more than that, he is also a
leader able to inspire and motivate his soldiers. As he progesses
though his career, he is expected to improve himself and to use his
experience and tactical knowledge to help develop matters of
strategy and policy. He is a student of warfare and is therefore a
scholar/thinker.
I realize that the average spec/WO falls far from the ideal. But
isn't that what a motto is all about? To inspire and initiate
changes.
Anyway, 'Valiant Thrust' is the motto of some armour unit. I saw
their poster whilst on Ops Bacinet. Did we have some laughs. Maybe
its me, but I have always had an urge to thrust my hips out
whenever I think about 'valiant thrust'...
