This manual serves as a practical reference for military personnel, detailing protocols for obedience, military courtesy, care of equipment, field training, and personal hygiene. The opening of the manual begins with an introduction to fundamental military principles, emphasizing the importance of discipline, obedience, and loyalty within the ranks. It outlines the soldiers' oath of enlistment and discusses the necessity of adhering to lawful orders without question.
