COMMAND AND ORGANISATION

CHAIN OF COMMAND


The Army is commanded from the MoD via two subsidiary headquarters and a number of smaller headquarters worldwide. 

The Joint Headquarters (JHQ) at Northwood in Middlesex has an important input into this chain-of-command and it is almost certain that any operation with which the Army is involved, will be under the overall command of JHQ.

The following diagram illustrates this chain-of-command.

Note: * The Quartermaster General will operate with support from the Director General Logistics (Land) and Director General Logistics (Supply Chain). Both of these organisations are part of the joint Defence Logistics Organisation (DLO).
