And the Marines would be another example of such 'young' organizations having 'the tradition'- they have been forged by war and subsequently, their need to fight in extreme situations.

I think that for the purposes of this thread, it'd be best to have a more concrete definition of that "tradition" we're talking about here =
The tradition of professional duty and service stemming from the professional doctrines, disciplines, laws, rules and regulations that encompass and define the entire scope of the organization and its functions.
Hoping this'd serve as the baseline for when we refer to that "tradition" in future reference.
