Structure of The Royal Danish Army

Danish Army major combat units

The structure of the Danish army changed in 2010, leaving Danish Division without brigades or support troops directly under the CO command. The two brigades have only command over combat battalions, as all support regiments are now operational units under the Chief of Army Operational Command.

The concept is a modular army, support regiments are giving the command over their units/detachments to brigades or battalions depending of the mission or operation.

Famous quotes containing the words structure of, structure, royal and/or army:

    Man is more disposed to domination than freedom; and a structure of dominion not only gladdens the eye of the master who rears and protects it, but even its servants are uplifted by the thought that they are members of a whole, which rises high above the life and strength of single generations.
    Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (1767–1835)

    A structure becomes architectural, and not sculptural, when its elements no longer have their justification in nature.
    Guillaume Apollinaire (1880–1918)

    The Royal Navy of England hath ever been its greatest defence and ornament; it is its ancient and natural strength; the floating bulwark of the island.
    William Blackstone (1723–1780)

    We have nothing to fear from our foes; God keeps a standing army for that service; but we have no ally against our Friends, those ruthless Vandals.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
