Welcome to the Inspector's General site.  Our primary function is to assist The Adjutant General, Texas Military Department, in taking care of our Soldiers and Airmen.  The IG is a personal staff office providing the commanders a sounding board for sensitive issues.  Our primary means of conducting this mission include training, inspecting, assisting, and investigating.  We serve as impartial fact-finders and the eyes, ears, voice, and conscience of The Adjutant General of Texas and Commanders at all levels.

All Soldiers and Airmen have the right to present complaints, grievances, or requests for assistance to the Inspector General.  These complaints or grievances may include what one reasonably believes to be evidence of fraud, waste, and abuse. 

Before visiting the Inspector General, you should consider whether your Chain of Command can address your concerns in a more prompt manner.  However, you are not required to present your concerns to your chain of command before contacting the Inspector General.

In accordance with AR 20-1, paragraph 1-12, the Inspector General has a duty to protect confidentiality to the maximum extent possible.  This requirement to protect confidentiality is true for all persons who ask the Inspector General for help, make a complaint, contact or assist an Inspector General during an inspection or investigation, or otherwise interact with an Inspector General.
To file a complaint, complete a DA Form 1559 or AF Form 102, and submit it to the Texas Military Department Inspector General Office.

The IG will do everything to maintain CONFIDENTIALITY when handling complaints; however, it may be unavoidable to disclose some information to properly handle the case. In such instances, we will try to contact the complainant prior to disclosure.
