NATO Command Structure

The NATO Command Structure is a framework that facilitates effective military coordination among member countries. It consists of various commands, including operational commands for planning and conducting missions, and support commands for logistics and training. The system ensures clear lines of authority and communication, with a Supreme Allied Commander overseeing operations. This structure enables NATO to respond rapidly to crises, enhance collective defense, and conduct joint exercises, ensuring that allied forces can work seamlessly together despite differing national policies and practices.
