The Bravery principle includes two attack types. Which are they?

• A. Attacking a Fortified Enemy and Attacking an Unprepared Enemy
• B. Naval assault and air assault
• C. Defend and retreat
• D. Surprise night attack and daytime assault

Answer: (C)

Bravery here is about bold, purposeful action under pressure, not reckless charges. The two forms that embody this principle are defending ground and retreating when staying to fight would jeopardize the force’s future effectiveness. Defending means holding a position to deny the enemy and to buy time for reinforcements or a better opportunity, showing resolve and steadiness under threat. Retreating, when continued engagement would lead to decisive loss, is also a fearless choice—executed to preserve forces, regroup, and exploit a later chance to strike effectively.

Other options describe offensive modes or different domains, not the two ways bravery translates into action in this framework. Attacking fortified or unprepared targets, or conducting naval/air assaults, or different timings of attacks are about how to attack, not the two brave forms of maintaining mission viability through defense or selective withdrawal.
