An Analysis of Command and Control in the Road Division Division Support Command Headquarters.

Abstract

The mission of the ROAD division Support Command is "to provide division level supply, field maintenance, medical service and miscellaneous services for all elements of the division assigned or attached." The objective of this study is to analyze the adequacy of the support command headquarters to accomplish its missions. A questionnaire was sent to each of the active Army division support commands, except airborne; eleven of fourteen responded. The overall conclusion is that the capability of the headquarters is generally adequate, but that command and control would be improved substantially if certain modifications in communication equipment, operating procedures, and organization were implemented.
