However, this is not as straightforward and unambiguous as it sounds. Present-day military practices show that political assignments, social and cultural contexts, innovative technologies and organisational structures, present military personnel with questions and dilemma’s that can have far-reaching consequences for all involved –  not in the last place for the soldiers themselves. A thorough training and education, in which critical thinking is developed and stimulated, seems therefore a necessary condition for morally responsible behaviour. This book aims to contribute to this form of ‘reflective practitioning’ in military practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Illustrations   Notes on Contributors   1 Introduction Ethics and Military Practice    Désirée Verweij    2 Fostering Reflective Practice and Moral Competence Ethics Education in the Military    Eva van Baarle    3 ‘The Roof, the Roof, the Roof is on Fire’ Moral Standards and Moral Disengagement in Military Organisations    Eva van Baarle and Marjon Blom-Terhell    4 Loyalty A Grey Virtue?    Peter Olsthoorn and Marjon Blom-Terhell    5 Moral Injury The Psychological Impact of Morally Critical Situations    Tine Molendijk    6 Ethics and Technology    Christine Boshuijzen-Van Burken    7 An Organisational Perspective on Military Ethics    Eric-Hans Kramer, Herman Kuipers, Miriam de Graaff    8 Morality Foundation for Competent Professionals    G.
