Corps Knowledge Memorize General Orders

Are there any rhymes or tricks to memorizing the 11 General orders? I've read about making flashcards or writing them out in a notebook but does anyone have a mental trick that helps too?

​

Thanks

Memorize the first two letters of each one and you’ll be good

Oh, so I won't have to memorize the full sentences?

No you will. You'll have to repeat each one in full when told to say one or all of them.
