How can a military command beome a joint command?
462234
I am in the Army and the guy who works next to me in my current unit is a navy guy but we are NOT a joint command, we are an Army command with Airmen, Sailors, and Marines assigned.  I think Congress authorizes Joint Commands because when a command is joint it has special privileges in regards to personnel assignment, evaluations, and awards.

Military ranking is the basis for many facets of society.  Police departments, in many cases, follow the concept to the point of using names and ranks for individuals as they climb the department ranks.  Protocol in the corporate structure is fashioned after military structure.  Many in the corporate structure today, would not realize this because they have never served in a military environment.\n The Pentagon, or for that matter any military complex in the whole world where civilians and military personnel work together, have melded there ranking so that seniority and rank prevail over those of lesser rank or seniority.  So much so, that a civilian  with a higher G-rating than an officer with a lower O-ranking is in command of a project they work on, jointly, unless the civilian is assigned only in a consulting capacity.

A good leader defines the mission clearly for his troops and gets everyone to agree that the mission can be completed. When changes occur, then clarity and buy-in again play a huge role in success.\n\nCan you create an incentive for performance? Can you measure performance? \n\nDon't reprimand someone in public. Do it privately. Don't yell. \n\nAsk questions of your troops rather than constantly making statements. Figure out how to ask a question to achieve the same thing you could achieve if you gave an order. This, again, is buy-in. \n\nThe best leaders assign the right work to the right person. The best leaders hire the right people for the right job and carefully cull the workforce for slackers.\n\nDon't be too friendly with your suborinates, but make an environment where everyone would say you were friendly and professional.

Going after someone in your chain of command could be devasting for your career. Imagine if you were to go out and you had an arguement. work would be very uncomfortable the next day wouldn't it?

No Soldiers, according to the book , have a duty to obey any illegal or immoral order or command. Thus no soldier can be compelled to act illegally or immorally. However a claim of an illegal war is defined by the seated government and the juxtaposition of the Geneva Accords & Conventions. As for the chain of command, the proper channels and protocals define proper obligations for tose initiated, like them or not!

with the creation of the dept of homeland security, many police depts are getting more extensive training.. however i may be confused in the context of your question... if an enemy was on a mil base.. the military would respond... the military would only assist law enforcement if a state of emergency is declared.. does this answer your question??

the military can already do it

Every body deploys.  Training isn't easy for any of 'em. If you can't hack it, don't waste the military's time.

if the base is closing there is no new mission for that base just the people on the base who will be moved else where to do the same job... realigning usually just means they are adding or consolidating work that was done in several places into one central local and having one consolidated office.. you would have to know about each base individually and what was done at each base.. example Marine Corps Air Stations Tustin and El Torro in Southern Ca... All Moved to the now Marine Corps Airstation Mirimar CA and Marine Corps Air Station Yuma AZ... the personel were sent to those two bases and continued working those who were in civi positions that could not be moved I would assume lost thier jobs all others transfered or found work else where...hope that helps

That is one of the top capabilities of a Marine Expeditionary Unit. It is one of the reasons why the Marine Corps is structured as it is today. It is meant to be able to invade a hostile shoreline, secure a beachead and hold off enemy counterattacks until the main assault waves arrive.

i read an article that said that men in the military would not feel comfortable, therefore would lack trust--and since they are entrusted with each other's lives, then it would be dangerous.\n\ni don't really understand that line of argument...you are given orders--then you carry them out, as i see it.\n\njust contributing

Military format of what?

Interesting.  So being the chief executive of a state doesn't give you anything worthwhile that would be of use in the role of chief executive of the nation.  \nSo being commander in chief of the National Guard for your state doesn't give anything worthwhile that would be of use in the role of commander in chief of the nation's military.  I have now typed way more than this ludicrous statement warrants.  Thanks for the 2 points.

military is a tool. like a hammer, its used for force when all other options are exhausted. origonally it was strictly for defense only. war is profitable to the few who have the power & authority to wage it. entangling alliances is always the excuse to get into war, profit is the motive. somehow we strayed from individual liberty to a proactive intrusionist mentality.

Very lucky, very connected, and/or very dedicated to duty. It's not an easy position to get. Here's the present one:\nhttp://www.army.mil/leaders/leaders/sma/

I knew a guy who was in the Army and he claimed that a click varied. They changed the meaning depending on what the situation was. Hey, thats what the man told me.

Sadly, there is no easy way to do this. My only success in doing that was to storm Yahoo HQ with a crack team of three light infantry units. Once inside we needed to take something like nine hostages at gunpoint before we could even get a secretary to speak to us. Only after we had executed four of the older ones did we finally get a tech-support person to show his pimply face, but by then we had been stormed from the roof-tiles by their own internal SWAT division and as I write from deep within a holding cell in the Yahoo! building, I find that I'm not getting all the points I deserve on this system, and I can't get anything but a chat-bot to deal with the question. Mind-numbingingly-maddening this situation.
