What is the second General Order?

I will guard everything within the limits of my post and quit my post only when properly relieved.

I will report emergencies to the commander immediately.

I will carry out my assigned tasks with the utmost efficiency.

I will obey my special orders and perform all my duties in a military manner.

The second General Order focuses on obedience to higher command and maintaining military bearing while carrying out duties. It states that a guard will obey special orders and perform all duties in a military manner. This combination—following directives beyond the basic post duties and doing so with discipline and professionalism—is what defines this order. The other statements describe different duties (guarding the post, reporting emergencies, or performing tasks efficiently) but do not capture the specific requirement to follow special orders with military bearing.
