Una salus victis, nullam sperare salutem

"The one hope of the doomed is not to hope for safety."

Whatever plan the Field Commander gives, you must follow it through from beginning to end. You must not deviate from it, or change it to your own ideas. Even if it results in defeat, you must not abandon it. In a unit working as a team, even a bad plan can result in victory. The instant members of the team begin to deviate from the plan, the battle is lost. At that moment, we are no longer a team, but a group of individuals each with his own agenda. Remember this, and when on the field, live it.
