Honesty is a core part if integrity. It is also squishy for some people–do we always have to tell the whole truth in order to be honest?

What are the limits of honesty for you?

The first of the three core values of the United States Air Force is “integrity first.” Senior Master Sgt. Paul Yecke writes of this, “None of us are born with integrity, nor can we obtain integrity with a few well-placed words or actions. Integrity is the never-ending pursuit of honesty.”

How do you respect the integrity of others?
