The theory of the dipole oscillations of fully relativistic neutron stars is investigated. The equations governing these modes are reduced to a third-order system; and the variational principle for the frequencies of these modes is reduced to a form involving only two independent functions. The equations that determine the damping of these modes, which is due to viscous dissipation, are presented. The frequencies and viscous damping times for a range of realistic neutron star models based on a number of equations of state and a range of masses are determined by solving these dipole oscillation equations numerically.
