US Army Regulations 1812

Soldiers shall be treated with humanity and kindness; they shall never be wronged or injured; their superiors shall be beneficent friends and their officers shall direct and protect them, with the regard and care due to men, on whose obedience and valor greatly depend their own future reputation and glory. And all superiors, of whatever rank, are strictly forbidden to injure those under their command, by harsh, abusive, and unbecoming language, or by overbearing, unjust, and tyrannical conduct.
