<strong>OPNAVINST</strong> 15 Jun2001 171O.7A CHAPTER 8 Dining-In The Dining-In k a formal dinner function for members of an organization or unit. It provides an occasion for officers to meet socially at a formal military function. It is also accepted as an excellent means for bidding farewell to departing officers while welcoming new ones. Finally, the occasion provides an opportunity to recognize both individual and unit achievements. The custom of Dining-In is a very old tradition in England but is not exclusively military. It is believed that Dining-In began as a custom in the monasteries, was adopted by the early universities, and later spread to military units when the officers’ mess was established. The primary elements are a formal setting, the camaraderie of the members, a fine dinner, traditional toasts to the President and military services, mzulial music and the attendance of honored guests. Officers of the Mess There are two officers of the mess. The President is normally the senior officer although he/she may delegate another to assume the function. The F’resident presides over the mess throughout the evening. The Vice President is appointed by the President and is normally the junior member of the mess. He/she is affectionately referred to as “Mr. ViceiMadame Vice,” and is the key figure in planning for the dining-in. During the dining-in itself, the Vice discreetly quiets any disturbance, announces or seconds toasts as directed by the President, and prepares a list of offenders and offenses for the President. The list maly be handed to the President or read aloud, as directed at the time specified by the President. GUESTS There are two types of guests, official and personal. The former are those hosted by the mess and are usually senior in rank to the President, such as distinguished civilian, a prominent foreign national, a senior official of the U.S. Government or distinguished representative of the other armed services. Personal guests, invited with the permission of the President, are junior in rank to the President. Official guests are guests of the mess as a whole; their expenses are shared. The expenses of personal guests are paid by the one who invited them. This includes bar expenses. Mess officers should arrive at least 10 minutes before the hour of invitation in order to meet and talk with the guests of honor and get acquainted with others. Officers do not leave until the guests have departed unless they have been excused beforehand for a good reason. PROCEDURE Cocktail Hour Preceding the dinner there is an open-bar cocktail hour, which lasts for approximately 45 minutes. Each member of the mess should arrive 5 minute:s before opening time. It is customary 8-1 -. Enclosure (1)
