• IG Defined
• The typical staff officer is a man past middle
  life, spare, wrinkled, intelligent, cold,
  noncommittal, with eyes like a codfish, polite in
  contact, but at the same time unresponsive, cool,
  calm and as damnably composed as a concrete pot
  or plaster of Paris cast a human petrifaction
  with a heart of feldspar and without charm or
  friendly germ minus bowels, passions or a sense
  of humor. Happily they never reproduce and all
  of them finally go to hell.
• - GEN George S. Patton, Jr.

• Preamble of AR 20-1
• IGs are responsible for advising commanders on
  the state of their commands. IGs are confidential
  advisors and factfinders to the commander.
  Selfless service is the cardinal attribute of
  successful military and civilian IGs. Everyone
  within a command or headquarters will respect IGs
  for their level of expertise, candor,
  credibility, reliability, and trustworthiness.
  IGs must adhere to and be advocates of the Army
  values and the Warrior Ethos. IGs will be among
  the Armys most professional and knowledgeable
  soldiers and civilians for their particular grade
  or rank. Uniformed Army IGs are selected through
  a nominative process, and civilian IGs of all
  types are selected through normal civilian
  personnel recruitment procedures and approved by
  the detailed IG (see chap 2).

• Command and State Inspectors General
• Inspectors General (IGs) are assigned to
  commands, agencies, activities, centers,
  communities, installations, and States in
  accordance with established authorization
  documents. In general, IGs serve on the personal
  staffs of general officers who command
  organizations with wartime missions. IGs and
  their IG offices normally begin at division level
  and appear at the corps/ Army, Regional Readiness
  Command (RRC), State, and MACOM levels, to
  include separate brigades commanded by either
  general officers or full colonels. ARNG brigade
  combat teams also have detailed IGs. Commanders
  determine the need for IG supporting staff in
  accordance with AR 7132 and other applicable
  regulations (see AR 20-1, para 21). The command
  or State IG is a member of the commanders
  personal staff.
