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

    The Department of Defense is responsible for providing the military
    forces needed to deter war and protect the security of our country.
      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 1.2 million members
    of the Reserve and National Guard. In addition, there are about 670,000
    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 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 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

    [[Page 158]]

    [[Page 159]]

    specifically delegated in writing by the Secretary of Defense or
    provided by law.
        The commanders of the combatant commands are responsible to the
    President and the Secretary of 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 combatant
    commands. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff functions within the
    chain of command by transmitting the orders of the President or the
    Secretary of Defense to the commanders of the combatant commands.

    The Joint Chiefs of Staff consist of the Chairman; the Vice Chairman;
    the Chief of Staff of the Army; the Chief of Naval Operations; the Chief
    of Staff of the Air Force; and the Commandant of the Marine Corps. The
    Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is the principal military adviser

    Defense. The other members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff are military
    advisers who may provide additional information upon request from the
    President, the National Security Council, or the Secretary of Defense.
    They may also submit their advice when it does not agree with that of
    the Chairman. Subject to the authority of the President and the
    Secretary of Defense, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is
    responsible for:
        --assisting the President and the Secretary of Defense in providing
    for the strategic direction and planning of the Armed Forces;
        --allocating resources to fulfill strategic plans;
        --making recommendations for the assignment of responsibilities
    within the Armed Forces in accordance with and in support of those
    logistic and mobility plans;
        --comparing the capabilities of American and allied Armed Forces
    with those of potential adversaries;
        --preparing and reviewing contingency plans that conform to policy
    guidance from the President and the Secretary of Defense;
        --preparing joint logistic and mobility plans to support contingency
    plans; and
        --recommending assignment of logistic and mobility responsibilities
    to the Armed Forces to fulfill logistic and mobility plans.
        The Chairman, while so serving, holds the grade of general or
    admiral and outranks all other officers of the Armed Forces.
        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.

    [[Page 161]]

    Combatant Commands

    The combatant commands are military commands with broad continuing
    missions maintaining the security and defense of the United States
    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 combatant commands. The
    Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff serves as the spokesman for the
    commanders of the combatant commands, especially on the operational
    requirements of their commands.
