Guard Duty Concepts
To Be Changed In Aug.
WASHINGTON (ANF) -Start-
ing August 1, the U.S. Army
will drop the 11 general or-
ders and substitute the follow-
ing three:
No. 1—"I will guard every-
thing within the limits of my
post and quit my post only
when properly relieved."
No. 2—"I will obey my spe-
cial orders and perform all my
duties in a military manner."
No. 3—''I will report viola-
tions of my special orders,
emergencies, and anything not
covered in my instructions, to
the commander of the relief."
The three simplified orders
will be supplemented on each
post by a set of realistic, de-
tailed, and mission-oriented
special orders, established by
the commanding officer. These
additional orders are tailored
for the specific post and situa-
tion from the viewpoint of se-
curity and sentry effectiveness
and protection.
The revised general orders
are.part of a new concept of
Army-wide guard duty, both on-
post (interior) and off-post (ex-
terior;. as stated in DA Field
Manual 22-6. The new manual,
called "Guard Duty," replaces
FM26-5, called "Interior Guard
Duty."
r'M 22-6 defines exterior
guard as a term to classify those
guards in a combat area, guards
in hostile or unfriendly terri-
tory, and guards located any-
where who have to perform their
duties in such a manner that the
general orders prescribed for
interior guard are not appli-
cable or practicable.
The new manual, effective
August 1, explains in detail
the use of the countersign and
parole word under all field and
combat conditions.
