This is when Integrity counts and examples of Integrity.
Is it when Integrity is doing the right thing all the time, whether everyone is watching or no one is watching. It is the compass that keeps us on the right path when we are confronted with ethical challenges and personal temptations, and it is the foundation upon which trust and respect are built. An individual realizes integrity when thoughts and actions align with what he or she knows to be right?

This is Service Before Self with examples.
What is the choice to serve is a decision to hold ourselves to a higher standard; it is a calling, a daily commitment that takes energy, dedication, and sacrifice. Selfless service places demands upon us which are not levied upon the American public or those who choose other professions. Selfless service begins when our Airmen take the Oath of Office or Enlistment, but it does not mean we let go of all that we hold dear - our family, loved ones, and sincerely held beliefs. We embrace a disciplined approach to rule-following, self-control, respect for authority, and respect for the beliefs and worth of others. NOTE: Airmen must practice selfcare first to be able to serve others.?

Cyber hackers are creating new targets.
What are public school systems?
Can include discipline information, special education records, medical histories and more – can be held hostage, with hackers threatening to release sensitive information if districts don't pay a ransom, as they did in Minneapolis. The data can also be used to steal a child's identity.
He says stealing a child's identity may seem counterintuitive because they don't have resources of their own, but it can cause "a lot of havoc." Parents don't necessarily monitor their children's credit and bad actors can easily open up bank accounts, rack up debt and apply for loans in a child's name. And as a result, cyber criminals can abuse the credit records of minors for many, many years before the victims learn about it," Levin says.

He said, “Regardless of our respective ranks and positions, we must execute to the best of our abilities and we must do right the first time because the application of Airpower is serious business where half-hearted efforts and playing for second place are not options.”
