FOREWORDPractices developed among nations in the course of their contacts with one anotherdefine the essence of protocol. Protocol is the combination of good manners andcommon sense, which allows effective communications between heads of state and theirrepresentatives. It is not static. Rather, it is an evolving science that, over the years, haslost much of its traditional pomp and picturesque ceremony. Changes in acceptedprotocol, however, are best left to the highest policy-forming officers in the Departmentof State. Errors in protocol may be mistaken as a signal of a change in the internationalclimate. Persons using this pamphlet are cautioned that unauthorized innovations inprotocol, however well intentioned, are improper.Etiquette encompasses the body of manners and forms prescribed by custom,usage, or authority. It is accepted as correct behavior when people deal with oneanother. Etiquette preserves respect for the rights and dignities of others. In short,etiquette represents good manners. Today, many of the old established customs areblended with less restricted ways of life—of entertaining with little or no help, incommunicating with others, and in coping with everyday problems that once werehandled by a staff. The full integration of women and divergent cultures into theServices brought more changes. Service people now have a more knowledgeable way oflife. Still, as in bygone years, there are certain rules to be followed in order to reach thegoal of easier, gracious living.As with any rule of the road, a charted course will get you to a specific place at agiven time for a certain occasion. Proper etiquette is not artificial. It is a practical set ofrules. When learned, these rules save time that would be wasted in deciding what isproper. Etiquette helps people proceed with the more important phases of social interaction.The intent of this pamphlet is to provide you with the basics of proper protocol andetiquette. Using this information as a foundation, you should feel at ease in such mattersas calling cards, introductions, invitations and responses, official dinners, seating andprecedence, forms of address, and arranging visits for important visitors. With practice,protocol and etiquette will not be difficult but will be instead a natural, courteous wayto properly greet and entertain civilian and military visitors and colleagues.

Chapter 1Visits and Introductions1–1. Army customsThe exchange of courtesy visits is one of the Army’s oldest and most established traditions. This is one way soldierscan make social contacts among themselves. These visits, known as official and social calls, are essential to mutualunderstanding, respect, confidence, and teamwork. The size and complexity of today’s Army may hinder the exchangeof courtesy visits. You should follow established customs of the Service whenever possible. Additional sources ofinformation regarding visits, introductions, protocol, and etiquette are listed in appendix A.1–2. General rulesPolicies for making official and social calls differ widely in the various commands and organizations. Such calls arenot made as extensively as in past years. Ask the adjutant, the commander’s aide, or the agency executive officer aboutthe commander’s wishes.1–3. Official callsa. General. All official calls are made at the office of the person visited.b. Arrival calls. Paid by a subordinate to an immediate superior and then on that officer’s superior; for example, anew major to a battalion sets a courtesy call with his or her battalion commander and brigade commander forintroduction. Another method is to have the newcomer escorted to the various offices, introduced to fellow workers,then at a time convenient to superiors, by appointment, courtesy calls are made. Official calls should be made within48 hours after arrival at the new location.c. Departure calls. The official procedures for leaving an installation or post may vary. Custom requires that anofficer departing the post make an official call on his immediate commanding officers as an act of courtesy.1–4. Social callsThe practice of making social calls has declined greatly. The more common practice today is to have a “hail andfarewell” to introduce newcomers and say goodbye to those leaving. However, upon arrival at the new location, oneshould inquire as to which method the commander prefers.a. Making social calls. Some general rules for making social calls:(1) Calls are normally made at the officer’s residence.(2) The visit is planned at a time convenient to the officer visited.(3) If the commander is married and the commander’s spouse is present, the spouse of the officer making the visitshould also attend.(4) Social calls should last no less than 10 minutes and no more than 15 unless the caller is requested to stay longer.b. Commander’s reception. The custom at many installations is for the senior officer to periodically entertainassigned officers and their spouses at a reception or series of receptions.c. New Year’s Day call. It is customary in many organizations for the officers of the unit to call on the commandingofficer on New Year’s Day. One should inquire as to the local policy and how the commander desires to have peoplecall, for example, alphabetical: A–M 1300–1415, M–Z 1430–1545.1–5. IntroductionsBrevity and accuracy are two requirements that must be kept in mind when introducing people. The person making theintroduction is completely in charge of the situation for the length of time that it takes to effect it. There are a fewsimple rules to remember, as shown below.a. A man is always presented to a woman—with the exception of the president of any country, a king, a dignitary ofthe Church, or when a junior female officer is “officially” presented to a senior male officer.b. The honored/higher ranking person’s name is stated first, then the name of the person being presented.c. Young people are presented to older people of the same gender.d. A single person is introduced to a group.Chapter 2Invitations2–1. Formal engraved invitationsa. Engraved invitations (fig 2–1) are the most formal invitation and are issued for very special occasions. They areengraved with black ink on a good quality white or cream colored vellum card stock.DA PAM 600–60 11 December 20011

b. Invitations are sent out 2 or 3 weeks in advance. If the function is extremely large, 3 or 4 weeks may be moresuitable.c. Engraved invitations often include an admittance card to be shown at the door. If admittance or seating cards areenclosed, they should be brought to the function.d. If the party is in honor of a distinguished visitor or other high-ranking official, “the host” is usually the first lineof the invitation, followed by “the event,” then “in honor of,” with the appropriate information on the individual(s) onthe next line or two.2–2. Semi-Engraved invitationsa. Semi-engraved invitations (fig 2–2) are adaptable to any date or occasion and are less expensive. Individuals whomust entertain frequently will generally use these invitations, they are correct for luncheons, receptions, dinners, andretirements.b. Honored guests may be designated by the phrases “in honor of Major General and Mrs. Smith” or “To meetMajor and Mrs. Jones.” The first phrase is more often used for prominent persons; the second, for new arrivals andguests.c. Formerly, it was not considered correct to ask an important official “to meet” anyone of lesser rank. Today,however, most officials may wish to know for whom a party is given, possibly influencing his or her acceptance.Figure 2–1. Formal engraved invitation2DA PAM 600–60 11 December 2001

Figure 2–2. Semi-engraved formal invitation2–3. Formal handwritten invitationsFormal invitations may be hand-written (fig 2–3) on white or cream note paper in black ink. The wording and spacingused on the formal engraved invitation (fig 2–1) are followed. Often the host or hostess has a preference forhandwritten invitations. They are more personal and a nice touch if the size of the party does not make preparing themburdensome.2–4. Telephone invitationsa. Telephone invitations are correct for formal functions as well as for small affairs. They also can be used in a casewhere there is extreme short notice. The protocol officer, aide-de-camp, or secretary could make the calls.b. To confirm oral invitations, reminder cards are frequently sent out to those who have accepted. The engraved,semi-engraved, or handwritten invitations may be used. Draw through the R.S.V.P. and telephone number, writing thewords “To Remind” underneath. Or have the words “To Remind” printed on the invitation where the R.S.V.P. wouldnormally be written.2–5. Telefax invitationsInvitations may be extended by facsimile, especially in a case where time is limited. The fax should include the sameinformation as the invitation above. The facsimile is also a tool to use to notify the invitee of a future event. This waythe date and time can be “saved” months ahead of time, followed up by an invitation issued at a date closer to theevent.2–6. Replies to formal invitationsa. A reply to a formal invitation (fig 2–4) should be written 48 hours after receiving a luncheon or dinner invitation.b. A regret (fig 2–5) includes the same information shown on the invitation, except that no reference is made to thetime or place.c. A formal invitation may request that the reply be addressed to an aide or social secretary. If this is not indicatedunder the R.S.V.P. on the invitation, the reply is addressed to the host and hostess.d. A married couple may accept a formal invitation when only one can attend, depending on the event and theirrelationship with the host or guest of honor.e. Printed reply cards may be enclosed with invitations to large official functions such as retirement reviews andDA PAM 600–60 11 December 20013

receptions. This provides for accurate accountability of the guests. The card, with a self-addressed envelope, may bethe fill-in type requesting specific information written by hand or typewritten.Figure 2–3. Formal written invitation4DA PAM 600–60 11 December 2001

Figure 2–4. Acceptance of a formal invitation2–7. Withdrawing an acceptance or invitationThere are few valid reasons to withdraw the acceptance of an invitation: serious illness, a death in the family, absencedue to an upcoming transfer, official duty, or very important business elsewhere. It should be noted that an invitation toThe White House takes precedence over all others (fig 2–6).a. Recalling a formal invitation. When unavoidable circumstances warrant, a formal invitation may be recalled. Ifthe occasion was small, and the invited guests would know the reason for withdrawal, none need be given. However, ifguests are unaware of the reason for withdrawal, then the reason for recalling the invitation is prepared in a similarmanner to the invitation (fig 2–7).b. Advancing or postponing an invitation. Advancing or postponing is better than canceling! An announcementchanging the date of an invitation must include an R.S.V.P. (figs 2–8 and 2–9).2–8. Informal invitationsa. General. Invitations to informal dinner parties, luncheons, teas, cocktails, and buffet suppers may be extended bypersonal note, telephone, or a short message prepared on a calling card or formal card. If a reply is desired, include“R.S.V.P.” or “Regrets only,” followed by a telephone number or address. This may also be used on informalinvitations when it is necessary to know the number of guests expected.b. Informal note. An invitation to a social function may be extended by an informal no
