CGSC Pamphlet 28-1 : Welfare, recreation, and morale : dining-in.

This purpose of this reference book is to assist those who would help spark a comeback for the Dining-In in the United States States Army. It is intended as a source document for officers planning a Dining-In or Dining-Out in their units.

There are many other books and pamphlets on the customs and traditions of the Army and service etiquette available to reinforce the information contained in this booklet.
