Military Campaign - Conduct of Campaigns

Conduct of Campaigns

Like all military operations, the military campaigns are conducted as large military projects that include the phases:

  • Initiating – clear idea of the campaign's military, political, economic, social or environmental goals
  • Planning – where the General Staff define objectives, time, scope and cost of the campaign
  • Executing – the coordination of forces and resources in logistic and combat operations
  • Controlling – the monitoring of the progress of the campaign when compared to its baseline plan
  • Concluding – acceptance or rejection of the campaign outcomes by the directing command structure

Many historical campaigns are so named as misnomers to increase or reduce the perception of operations for other than military reasons.

    That food has always been, and will continue to be, the basis for one of our greater snobbisms does not explain the fact that the attitude toward the food choice of others is becoming more and more heatedly exclusive until it may well turn into one of those forms of bigotry against which gallant little committees are constantly planning campaigns in the cause of justice and decency.
    Cornelia Otis Skinner (1901–1979)
