Structure of The Royal Danish Army

Danish Army major combat units

The structure of the Danish army changed in 2010, leaving Danish Division without brigades or support troops directly under the CO command. The two brigades have only command over combat battalions, as all support regiments are now operational units under the Chief of Army Operational Command.

The concept is a modular army, support regiments are giving the command over their units/detachments to brigades or battalions depending of the mission or operation.
