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.

    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    “One theme links together these new proposals for family policy—the idea that the family is exceedingly durable. Changes in structure and function and individual roles are not to be confused with the collapse of the family. Families remain more important in the lives of children than other institutions. Family ties are stronger and more vital than many of us imagine in the perennial atmosphere of crisis surrounding the subject.”
    —Joseph Featherstone (20th century)

    “Are you there, Africa with the bulging chest and oblong thigh? Sulking Africa, wrought of iron, in the fire, Africa of the millions of royal slaves, deported Africa, drifting continent, are you there? Slowly you vanish, you withdraw into the past, into the tales of castaways, colonial museums, the works of scholars.”
    —Jean Genet (1910–1986)

    “We have nothing to fear from our foes; God keeps a standing army for that service; but we have no ally against our Friends, those ruthless Vandals.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
