Future wars will require all elements of national power: economic, diplomatic, financial, legal and military. People, however, always will be the most important resource of any organization. Our combat capability resides in our people. While technology, organization and strategy contribute, the most essential ingredient of combat effectiveness is our professionally trained soldiers, sailors and airmen. Your nation now asks you to be even more dedicated, focused, innovative and productive. We need your gifts of talent, energy and ideas to adapting the military to the continuing challenges and needs of this era. Action - not rhetoric - will make the difference. The risks of action outweigh the consequences of inaction. Your collective sacrifices are why we live free in this great country. Our enemies need to understand that with seamless cohesion, our Armed Forces will use every means available to defeat them. From a common purpose, we are supported by the trust and understanding of the people of the United States. 
Secretary Roche's Action Principle has been written for the forthcoming Armed Services Tribute Edition of the Action Principles.
