OUR VALUES
OUR RESPONSIBILITY
CORPS AT OUR CORE
JJDIDTIEBUCKLE (pronounced "JJ did tie buckle") is an acronym for remembering the fourteen Marine Corps Leadership traits taught during recruit and OCS training. As a proud veteran-owned business, Patriot General Engineering integrates each element (Justice, Judgment, Dependability, Integrity, Decisiveness, Tact, Initiative, Endurance, Bearing, Unselfishness, Courage, Knowledge, Loyalty, and Enthusiasm) into its business model fostering a culture of discipline, adaptability, responsibility, and strategic decision-making. These leadership traits are relevant in both the military and civilian society. The terms troops, Marines, and employees can be used interchangeably. A company is only as good as its people.
“Justice is defined as the practice of being fair and consistent.”
“Giving reward and punishment according to the merits of the case in question. The
ability to administer a system of rewards and punishments impartially and consistently.”
“Judgment is your ability to think about things clearly, calmly, and in an orderly fashion so that you can make good decisions.”
“Dependability means that you can be relied upon to perform your duties properly. It means that you can be trusted to complete a job. It is the willing and voluntary support of the policies and orders of the chain of command.”
“Dependability is always consistently putting forth your best effort in an attempt to achieve the highest standards of performance.”
“Initiative is taking action even in the absence of orders. It means meeting new and unexpected situations with prompt action. It includes using resourcefulness to get something done without the normal material or methods being available to you.”
“Decisiveness means that you are able to make good decisions without delay. It is the ability to get all the facts and weigh them against each other. By acting calmly and quickly, you arrive at a sound decision that you announce in a clear, firm, professional manner.”
“The ability to deal with others in a manner that will maintain good relations and avoid offense. More simply stated, tact is the ability to say and do the right thing at the right time.”
“Integrity is uprightness of character and soundness of moral principles. It is the quality of being truthful and honest.”
“Simply stated, it means doing the right thing even when nobody is looking.”
“Enthusiasm is defined as a sincere interest and exuberance in the performance of your duties. If you are enthusiastic, you are optimistic, cheerful, and willing to accept the challenges.”
“Bearing is the way you conduct and carry yourself. Your manner should reflect alertness, competence, confidence, and control.”
“Unselfishness means that you avoid making yourself comfortable at the expense of others. Be considerate of others. Give credit to those who deserve it.”
“Courage is what allows you to remain calm while recognizing fear. Moral courage means having the inner strength to stand up for what is right and to accept blame when something is your fault. Physical courage means that you can continue to function effectively when there is physical danger present.”
“Knowledge is the understanding of a science or art. Knowledge means that you have acquired information and that you understand people. Your knowledge should be broad, and in addition to knowing your job, you should know your unit’s policies and keep up with current events.”
“Loyalty means that you are devoted to your country, the Corps, and to your seniors, peers, and subordinates. The motto of the Corps is Semper Fidelis!, (Always Faithful). It is having unwavering loyalty up and down the chain of command, to seniors, subordinates, and peers.”
“Endurance is the mental and physical stamina that is measured by your ability to withstand pain, fatigue, stress, and hardship.”
