------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Department of Defense is responsible for providing the military 
forces needed to deter war and protect the security of our country.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] T188578.015

  The major elements of these forces are the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, 
and Air Force, consisting of about 1.4 million men and women on active 
duty. They are backed, in case of emergency, by the 1 million members of 
the Reserve and National Guard. In addition, there are about 700,000 
civilian employees in the Defense Department.
  Under the President, who is also Commander in Chief, the Secretary of 
Defense exercises authority, direction, and control over the Department, 
which includes the separately organized military departments of Army, 
Navy, and Air Force, the Joint Chiefs of Staff providing military 
advice, the unified combatant commands, and defense agencies and field 
activities established for specific purposes.
The National Security Act Amendments of 1949 redesignated the National 
Military Establishment as the Department of Defense and established it 
as an executive department (10 U.S.C. 111), with the Secretary of 
Defense as its head.

Structure

The Department of Defense is composed of the Office of the Secretary of 
Defense; the military departments and the military services within those 
departments; the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Joint 
Staff; the unified combatant commands; the defense agencies; DOD field 
activities; and such other offices, agencies, activities, and commands 
as may be established or designated by law, or by the President or the 
Secretary of Defense.
    Each military department is separately organized under its own 
Secretary and functions under the authority, direction, and control of 
the Secretary of Defense. The Secretary of each military department is 
responsible to the Secretary of Defense for the operation and efficiency 
of his department. Orders to the military departments are issued through 
the Secretaries of these departments or their designees, by the 
Secretary of Defense, or under authority specifically delegated in 
writing by the Secretary of Defense or provided by law.
    The commanders of the unified combatant commands are responsible to 
the President and the Secretary of

[[Page 158]]

Defense for accomplishing the military missions assigned to them and 
exercising command authority over forces assigned to them. The 
operational chain of command runs from the President to the Secretary of 
Defense to the commanders of the unified combatant commands. The

command by transmitting the orders of the President or the Secretary of 
Defense to the commanders of the unified combatant commands.

They may also submit their advice when it does not agree with that of

    The Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs performs duties assigned by 
the Chairman, with the approval of the Secretary of Defense. The Vice 
Chairman acts as Chairman when there is a vacancy in the office of the 
Chairman, or in the absence or disability of the Chairman. The Vice 
Chairman, while so serving, holds the grade of general or admiral and 
outranks all other officers of the Armed Forces except the Chairman of 
the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Joint Staff

The Joint Staff, under the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, 
assists the Chairman and the other members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff 
in carrying out their responsibilities.
    The Joint Staff is headed by a Director who is selected by the 
Chairman in consultation with the other members of the Joint Chiefs of 
Staff and with the approval of the Secretary of Defense. Officers 
assigned to serve on the Joint Staff are selected by the Chairman in 
approximate equal numbers from the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air 
Force.

The unified combatant commands are military commands with broad 
continuing missions maintaining the security and defense of the United 
States

[[Page 160]]

against attack; supporting and advancing the national policies and 
interests of the United States and discharging U.S. military 
responsibilities in their area of responsibility; and preparing plans, 
conducting operations, and coordinating activities of the forces 
assigned to them in accordance with the directives of higher authority. 
The operational chain of command runs from the President to the 
Secretary of Defense to the commanders of the unified combatant 
commands. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff serves as the 
spokesman for the commanders of the unified combatant commands, 
especially on the operational requirements of their commands.

Field Activities

American Forces Information Service  The American Forces Information 
Service (AFIS) was established in 1977. AFIS provides internal 
information to U.S. forces worldwide in order to promote and sustain 
military unit and individual readiness, quality of life, and morale; 
trains public affairs, broadcast, and visual information professionals 
for DOD; provides communications services to military commanders and 
combat forces; and oversees and manages DefenseLINK and other Office of 
the Secretary of Defense publicly accessible websites. AFIS provides 
news, features, photography, videography, news clippings, and other 
internal command information products and services to DOD. It provides 
policy guidance and oversight for departmental periodicals and 
pamphlets, military command newspapers, the broadcast elements of the 
military departments, DOD audiovisual matters, and public affairs and 
visual information training.

entities: the Department of Defense Dependents Schools (DODDS) and the 
Department of Defense Domestic Dependent Elementary and Secondary 
Schools (DOD DDESS). DODEA formulates, develops, and implements 
policies, technical guidance, and standards for the effective management 
of Defense dependents education activities and programs. It also plans, 
directs, coordinates, and manages the education programs for eligible 
dependents of U.S. military and civilian personnel stationed overseas

Prisoners of War and Missing Personnel  The Defense Prisoner of War/
Missing Personnel Office (DPMO) was established in 1993 and provides 
centralized management of prisoner of war/missing personnel affairs 
within the Department of Defense, including leadership and policy 
oversight for all efforts to reach an accounting for Americans still 
unaccounted for as a result of U.S. involvement in past conflicts since 
World War II and the recovery and accounting of those Americans that may 
become isolated in hostile territory in future conflicts. The Office 
assembles and maintains databases on U.S. military and civilian 
personnel who are or were prisoners of war or missing as a result of a 
hostile action; declassifies DOD documents for disclosure and release; 
and maintains channels of communication on prisoner of war/missing 
personnel matters between DOD and the Congress, prisoner of war/missing 
personnel families, and the American public through periodic 
consultations and other appropriate measures.
