A Story of Failed Accountability | Marine Corps Association
This is a good read for why accountability is important, not only in a combat zone but also in training environment.
I was a road gaurd during ITB at the grenade range, up the hill and the opposite direction from where we had to hump back to (SOI West). I had heard silence for a while and looked back to see the company marching back. Of course in typical boot fashion I got yelled at for relieving myself from post, but I could see my Sergeant's face of oh shit when I came running up from the rear.
