This order directs that before any officer is detailed on the General Staff of the Army, they must have served on active duty for two years immediately preceding such a detail. Adoption of this order will ensure that officers must serve with troops, and will eliminate a great deal of graft that has existed in the service. All requests for exception to this order should be denied.
