12 O'clock high

In some ways 12 O’clock high related to Machaveli’s “The Prince.” There were 2 different commanders in the movie that took control of the bomb squad. The second leader demanded respect and the men somewhat feared him. They began to do better in their missions under the second commander even though he didn’t love them at the time. Eventually he began to love his group just as the first commander did. This, in a way, showed how love was more powerful than fear. The first commander never tried to instill fear in his men. He was a better commander in my eyes, because even though his men may not have done as well under him they were willing to do anything for him and stood by him until the very end.
