The leader can measure morale by close observation of his Marines in their daily activities, by inspections and by talking to them.

  14. Motivation • Motivation is the answer to the question “Why do Marines fight?” It also answers the “why” of everything Marines do to prepare for combat. Motivation is based on psychological factors such as needs, desires, impulses, inner drives, impelling forces, or commitments that influence the reactions and attitudes of people and what moves them to action. Simply put, motivation is commitment which is generally based on pride and unit integrity.
