Der Offizier Im Umgang: The Officer's Guide

By Carl Siwinna

Translation of this WW1 monograph"The Officer in his Interactions," authored by Captain Carl Siwinna, serves as a practical guide for young reserve officers and officer candidates regarding military conduct both on and off duty. Acknowledging the challenges of training during wartime, Siwinna emphasizes the importance of instilling proper etiquette and behavior, which may not receive sufficient attention compared to peacetime training. Contents cover a wide range of topics, including conduct while on duty, the proper wearing of uniforms, the protocol for saluting, and guidelines for correspondence. Additionally, it addresses essential aspects of military etiquette, such as handling complaints, understanding disciplinary proceedings, and the roles of honor courts and councils. It also provides practical advice for officers on leave, covering appropriate behavior when receiving invitations, visiting others, and maintaining professional conduct outside of official duties. This aims to bridge gaps in training, ensuring that young officers are equipped with the knowledge necessary to represent their service with dignity and respect, both in and out of uniform.
