Which of the following is not a part of the General Orders as described?

• A. I will guard everything within the limits of my post and quit my post only when properly relieved.
• B. I will obey my special orders and perform all my duties in a military manner.
• C. I will report violations of my special orders, emergencies, and anything not covered in my instructions to the commander of the relief.
• D. I will describe the Army Emblem.

Answer: (D)

General Orders lay out the duties of a sentry: guard everything within the post limits and leave only when properly relieved; obey special orders and perform all duties in a military manner; report violations of orders, emergencies, and anything not covered in your instructions to the commander of the relief. These statements reflect the responsibilities of guarding a post, following directives, and reporting issues—exactly what the General Orders cover. Describing the Army Emblem, on the other hand, isn’t a duty of the guard described by these orders; emblem description and display are governed by other regulations about insignia and symbols, not the daily post duties. So the statement about describing the Army Emblem is the one that doesn’t fit the General Orders.
