Lesson No. 25-Discipline and Respect
for the Colors.

"All persons In the military service
are required to obey strictly and to
execute promptly the lawful orders of
their superiors" (Army Regulations,
par. -
Discipline is not merely an obliga-
ton imposed upon you; It is a protec-
ton to you. Your superiors. from the
commanding general down. are just
as much bound to respect the regula-
tons of the army as you are; this in
cludes respect for the rights of every
soldier.
Military authority will be exer-
cised with firmness, kindness, and
Justice. While maintaining discipline
and the thorough and prompt per
Torrance Of military duty. all Off
GERS, in dealing with enlisted men,
will bear in mind the absolute neces-
sity of so treating them as to preserve
their self-respect. Officers will keep
in as close touch as possible with the
men under their command and Will
strive TO build up such relations of
confidence and sympathy as will in
sure the free approach OF their men
to them for counsel and assistance.
This relationship may be gained and
maintained without relaxation OF the
bonds Of discipline and with great
benefit TO the service as a whole"

Whether you like him or not you
