1 National Defence Act, Article 18 (1)
2 Refers to any one of the following Chief of Staff, Chief of Maritime Staff, Chief of Land Staff, Chief of Air Staff who report directly to the Chief of the Defence Staff.
3 The "field force" consists of the combat arms, combat support, and combat service support elements from which deployable task forces are generated.
4 Affiliated Battle Groups will be organized, structure, equipped and trained as they will be employed on expeditionary operations. They will be composed of a mixture of light and LAV infantry companies, an armoured reconnaissance squadron, an engineer squadron, an artillery battery, military police and combat service support
elements. The restructure of the Regular Force, combined with equipment modernization, forms a cornerstone of institutional capability investments and is key to positioning the Land Force to meet its force generation and force employment requirements.
5 The "operating environment" is the combination of operational and tactical circumstances in which the Land Force is expected live, move and fight, and it exists on both the physical and moral planes. The contemporary operating environment is a complex battlespace with a mix of geographical, environmental and human factors that
significantly complicates the conduct of operations.
7 The Strategic Joint Staff (SJS) is the functional authority on operations in the Defence planning process, and represents Operations in many of the new strategic governance bodies at Defence.
