I find it humorous that there is a list like this. It is very helpful. What is funny to me though is, when I was a kid I learned how to memorize by word/number associations. Almost everything is exactly how I "thought" of it in my mind to remember. The only difference is #9, I think of calling 911 if something is wrong. Thank you for posting. It helps considerably. The toughest one for me still is #11. Can't master that one yet.

This sounds oddly familiar..... I still have this almost exact memorized from when I was in boot camp using these tricks. It really works.

At my DEP meetings my recruiter is pushing memorizing the GOs by memorizing the first few words of each one:
To take To walk To report To repeat To quit To receive To talk To give To call To salute To be especially

The best way I found to memorize them is to do it in two parts. The first part being to just study and memorize the correct wording of each, without worrying about the order they come in. Secondly, memorize the order by just the first two words of each of them. It's easier to remember the order of two words than entire orders, and if you've already memorized the wording of each, when you recall the first two words the rest will come naturally.
It also helps to make "mental checkpoints" when you memorize the order. 3 and 4 are the double R's, report and repeat, and repeating comes after reporting naturally. 6 is the first long one. 9 is to call, by remembering 911 etc. 11's the last long one, then everything else just falls in between them. That's just what worked for me, just come up with however works for you like the ways in the image. |

My neighbor is retired from the military. We were talking about the general orders and he could only name number two off the top of his head. Personally, this is extremely helpful for me. I had no clue where to begin memorizing, but this is really easy! I use dice to choose them, the number on each one and then the total, three in all. It really does help!
