“Officer-of-the Day” (Black Watch)
When a battalion is stationed in barracks and not on active service, it still has to perform certain public duties as well as protect and safeguard the barracks itself. Back in the day, barracks, camp locations, and perimeters had to be regularly patrolled and policed allowing only those with the proper authority to both leave or enter the premises at any given times.
Although most of the actual duties of inspection and security of the barracks or camp is taken on by the Sergeant-of-the-Guard, a good Officer-of-the Day should make regular visits to and around the various locations to ensure that proper care and attention is being paid to his instructions and orders. In between his ‘rounds’, the Officer-of-the Day is allowed to relax in The Officers’ Mess.
