====Army Orders etc====
There are record series at the National Archives concerning Army Orders and Instructions etc. Army Council Instructions (ACIs), were issued 'For Official Use Only' and, unlike Army Orders (AOs), were not public documents. ACIs were effectively legal directions and had the weight of law. Army Orders were the means by which they were carried out.<ref>
