Battlefield Coordination Detachment

A Battlefield Coordination Detachment (BCD) is a military unit that acts as a communication bridge among different armed forces and agencies operating in a shared environment. Their primary role is to facilitate coordination and planning between air, land, and sea forces, ensuring that various units work together effectively during operations. They collect and share intelligence, relay commands, and synchronize activities to enhance mission success and safety. Essentially, the BCD helps different military parts coordinate seamlessly on complex, multi-service operations to achieve strategic objectives efficiently.
