Chief of defence

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Commissioned officer of armed forces
The CHODs from 29 countries gathered atthe Pentagon on March 11, 2002. The Chiefs of Defence in the picture includeUS Air Force Gen.Richard B. Myers,Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff;French Army Gen. Jean-Pierre Kelche,Chief of the Defence Staff;Dutch Navy Adm.Luuk Kroon,Chief of Defence;German Air Force Gen.Harald Kujat,Inspector General of theBundeswehr;British Navy Adm.Sir Michael Boyce,Chief of the Defence Staff

Achief of defence (orhead of defence) is the highest rankedcommissioned officer of a nation's armed forces. The acronym CHOD is in common use withinNATO and theEuropean Union as a generic term for the highest national military position within the NATO and EU member states, rather than the actual term used for individual positions. Thus, irrespective of the formal national designation of that position is some variation onCommander-in-Chief,Chief of Staff,Supreme Commander, or something else, they can all be referred to unambiguously as CHODs in NATO and EU terminology, although other terms are sometimes also seen within NATO. Thus, theChairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is the CHOD of theUnited States, theChief of the Defence Staff is the CHOD of theUnited Kingdom, theInspector General of theBundeswehr is the CHOD ofGermany, and theChief of Defence (Forsvarssjefen) is the CHOD ofNorway.

Both NATO and the EU occasionally hold CHODs meetings of theNATO Military Committee and theEuropean Union Military Committee respectively.
