Question Code of Conduct

Any one have any tricks for memorizing the code of conduct?

I'm having a hard time remembering which is which number.

Is that something you have to know for RTC? I was told I won't be learning that in any detail until SERE...

Maybe not... I'm going to OCS not RTC and it's required there. I thought it was at RTC too, but I could be mistaken. In that case, never mind.

Yeah, you and I have extra stuff related to the Code of Conduct because you're a Category III under the Geneva Conventions and I'm gonna be undergoing SERE training. I believe everyone gets briefed on the Code of Conduct at RTC, but I haven't heard anyone talk about having to memorize it.

Gotcha.
That's too bad. I really like the Code of Conduct. Well, I like the first and last articles, the middle is a little depressing lol. Though it is something I believe in and know to be important.

(1) I am an American, fighting in the forces which guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense

(2) I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never
surrender the members of my command while they still have the means to
resist

(3) If I am captured, I will continue to resist by all means available. I will
make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.

(4) If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners.
I will give no information or take part in any action which might be
harmful to my comrades. If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will
obey the lawful orders of those appointed over me, and will back them up in
every way

(5) When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am required to give
only my name, rank, service number, and date of birth. I will evade answering
further questions to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written
statements disloyal to my country and its allies or harmful to their cause.

(6) I will never forget that I am an American, fighting for freedom,
responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my
country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

Agreed. I think that's why I like it so much.
