Hide Profile

The Continental Congress on June 17, 1775, appointed an Adjutant General of the Continental Army. After 1783 no further provision was made for such an officer until an act of March 5, 1792, provided for an adjutant, who was also to do the work of inspector. An act of March 3, 1813, established an Adjutant General's Department and an Inspector General's Department which were united the following July under one head, the Adjutant and Inspector General. Separate heads for the two Departments were provided for by an act of March 2, 1821.

Except for the brief period 1904-7, The Adjutant General's Office (AGO) has been in continuous existance since 1821. In April 1904 the AGO and the Record and Pension Office of the War Department were united to form the Military Secretary's Office, but The Adjutant General was not included in this union of the two offices. In March 1907 the Congress restored the AGO.

The AGO functioned under the direction of the Secretary of War until the creation of the General Staff in 1903, when the AGO came under the general supervision of the Chief of Staff. When the War Department was reorganized in March 1942, the AGO was placed under the supervision of the Commanding General, Services of Supply (later designated Army Service Forces). With the dissolution of this organization in June 1946, the AGO was placed under the General Staff. After the War Department became the Department of the Army in 1947, the Adjutant General came under the direct supervision and control of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Personnel.

The Adjutant General has been charged with matters relating to command, discipline, and administration of the military establishment, and has had the duties of recording, authenticating, and communicating the Secretary's orders, instructions, and regulations to troops and individuals in the Army. He has been responsible for issuing commissions, compiling and issuing the Army Register and the Army List and Directory, consolidating the general returns of the Army and Militia, and recruiting.

The AGO chiefly handled Army orders, correspondence, and other records, and it received final custody of virtually all records concerned with the military establishment, including personnel of the Army and discontinued commands, noncurrent holdings of bureaus of the War Department, and special collections.

The organization and size of the AGO has been changed to meet changing needs. Some divisions and other units organized to handle specific functions existed only briefly while some were redesignated or consolidated with other offices. Some units did not create separate records; their correspondence was carried on in the name of The Adjutant General and is found in the main files of the AGO. Others maintained their own records.
