On the TV show MASH an army surgeon performed an unnecessary operation on a battalion commander to remove him from battle during the time he would need to recuperate from the surgery. The surgeon did this because he believed that the commander was over-aggressive which resulted in an abnormally high casualty rate among his men. A fellow surgeon counseled the operating surgeon that it is unethical to operate on a healthy body. However, the operating surgeon felt he was justified because he would probably save the lives of many men while the commander was recuperating. He believed more good than harm would come from performing the operation. Using the scenario of the army surgeon operating on a healthy person, respond to the ethical dilemma using Virtue Ethics. Be certain to identify the 2 vices and the mean of this specific dilemma.

Use a specific form of egoism or utilitarianism for each surgeon. Define the term(s) you use in the response.
