Which General Order requires repeating all calls from posts more distant from the guardhouse than my own?

• A. Fourth General Order
• B. Fifth General Order
• C. Second General Order
• D. Eighth General Order

Answer: (A)

The important idea here is maintaining a reliable line of communication as you move along the posts. Repeating the calls from posts farther away from the guardhouse ensures that information travels inward, so the guardhouse isn’t blindsided by something happening at a distant post. This rule is the General Order that directs you to echo all calls from posts more distant from the guardhouse than your own, creating a continuous relay of alerts and maintaining overall vigilance.

Other General Orders cover different duties—taking charge of the post, moving in a military manner, reporting violations, and so on—but they don’t mandate this specific voice relay of distant posts.
