[edit] Warrior societies

Is there anything that could be added on this sub-topic? -- MCG 03 Sept 06

[edit] Warrior classes/castes

Is there anything that could be added on this sub-topic? Knights, and the below mentioned Powhatan warriors maybe? -- MCG 03 Sept 06

[edit] Powhatan warriors

There should be a section about warriors from Native American tribes, including the Powhatans. Kocoum would be the example of one. --User:Angie Y.

[edit] More to Warrior Code

There is a lot more to the warrior code than listed here. A code-of-conduct for leaders and subordinates alike have a very powerful influence in military circles. The United State Naval Academy teaches its own viewpoint on the Warrior Code where the Warrior Code re-enforces a survival strategy for the United States Navy. Ultimately customs-and-courtesies of the armed forces of any nation forms the military survival strategy for the body (the sum-whole of the military forces that is the body) that includes chain-of-command respect, saluting, rank structures, and common social procedures not necessarily related to any specialist skill. Violation of a Warrior Code can mean open disgrace, since most militaries of the world operate on a system of honor (including the United States) where the rules and regulations are openly construed in such a manner that it can be viewed as escaping a court-marshal each day where any infraction can be taken to be a criminal offense; therefore, reputation and honor is critical for career survival. I served and watched someone without a drivers license get a less than honorable discharge where he violated a code-of-conduct of respect where he was viewed disrespectful and less than whole for not getting a common drivers license in the United States when told to do so despite any help (military vehicles do not move by themselves and there was a peace time man-power shortage). In short, the Warrior Code is important and there is more to it than in the main article, and crime can be a violation of the code-of-conduct. The warrior code allows for the warrior to hold on to his/her moral obligations without feeling as though the acts of war defines who he is as a person.

[edit] List of sports teams named "warrior"

This subheading has just appeared and I would suggest that it immediately be made its own article. The current list of warriors in various cultures is already getting a bit long and this one could be much, much longer. I have no opinion on how it should be organized, but such a list should be a separate article of its own, whether organized by country, sport or whatever. Compare to List of birds, list of martial arts or list of stalked celebrities. - Rorybowman 14:24, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] SIX LETTER WORDS

I am a soldier and it's time to get my license plates renewed. I trying to find a really cool sounding word of six letters or less that has someting to do with warriors. Everything I have tried so far has been taken, even words in other languages. Any suggestions??

FUCKED???

[edit] Leif Eriksson

I deleted the mention of "especially under Leif Eriksson" comment about Vikings. There were many famous Viking warleaders, but Leif Eriksson wasn't one of them, and his followers weren't particularly warlike. 85.8.12.78 14:40, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deleted "see also"

This List is totally redundant: we have category:Warriors, so I deleted it. `'mikka 08:37, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

no there should be a discussion on that if before you take that out. I put it back. I think you should probably take out the part though. 69.106.243.7 (talk) 08:46, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] the countries with female soldiers

soldiers may not count as warriors like the article says. Also there is no sources for that. also "active combat roles" may be hard to define. The US and Russia do have females in in their military. Im not sure if females soldiers in Russia are "permited to fill active combat roles" though. 69.106.243.7 (talk) 08:52, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

I always thought soldiers were payed warriors. That is soldier is a subset of warrior. Pretty much no country calls their troops warriors anymore. Now days they would be called militias. Rds865 (talk) 23:47, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
