Chapter 1 Introduction 1–1. Purpose This regulation prescribes the policies and responsibilities of command, which include the Well-being of the force, military discipline, and conduct, the Army Equal Opportunity (EO) Program, and the Army Sexual Assault Victim Program. 1–2. References Required and related publications and prescribed and referenced forms are listed in appendix A. 1–3. Explanation of abbreviations and terms Abbreviations and special terms used in this regulation are listed in the glossary. 1–4. Responsibilities The detailed responsibilities are listed and described in separate chapters under specific programs and command functions. This paragraph outlines general responsibilities. a. The Deputy Chief of Staff, G–1 (DCS, G–1) will formulate, manage, and evaluate command policies, plans, and programs that relate to: (1) Chain of command (para 2–1), designation of junior in the same grade to command (para 2–7), and assumption of command by the senior when the commander dies, is disabled, resigns, retires, or is absent (para 2–8). (2) The Army Well-being concept (para 3–3), architecture (para 3–4), process (para 3–7), and integration of all Army Well-being related programs (para 3–8). (3) Extremist organizations and activities (para 4–12), relationships between Soldiers of different rank (para 4–14), and other prohibited relationships (para 4–15). (4) Political activities (para 5–3), Family care plans (para 5–5), accommodation of religious practices (para 5–6), and Human Relations Readiness Training (HRRT) (para 5–13). (5) The Army EO Program (para 6–2). (6) Sexual Assault Prevention and Response (SAPR) Program (para 8–3). b. The officials listed below have responsibilities for specific groups of personnel concerning awareness of the Army’s accommodation of religious practices policies. Every enlisted Soldier (including reenlistment), cadet, warrant officer (WO), and commissioned officer applicant needs to be informed of the Army’s accommodation of religious practices policies under this regulation (para 5–6). (1) The Judge Advocate General. All judge advocate officer accessions. (2) The Chief of Chaplains. All chaplain officer accessions. This principal Headquarters, Department of the Army (HQDA) official will also formulate and disseminate education and training programs regarding religious traditions and practices within the U.S. Army. (3) The Superintendent, U. S. Military Academy. All U.S. Military Academy cadet applicants. (4) The Commanding General, U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command ( CG, TRADOC). All Reserve Officer Training Corps cadets and all officer and WO candidates. (5) The Commanding General, U.S. Army Recruiting Command (CG, USAREC). All enlisted and Army Medical Department (AMEDD) officer accessions. c. Commanders at all levels will implement and enforce the chain of command and Army command (ACOM) policies. 1–5. Command a. Privilege to command. Command is exercised by virtue of office and the special assignment of members of the United States Armed Forces holding military grade who are eligible to exercise command. A commander is, therefore, a commissioned or WO who, by virtue of grade and assignment, exercises primary command authority over a military organization or prescribed territorial area that under pertinent official directives is recognized as a "command." The privilege to command is not limited solely by branch of Service except as indicated in chapter 2. A civilian, other than the President as Commander-in-Chief (or National Command Authority), may not exercise command. However, a civilian may be designated to exercise general supervision over an Army installation or activity (for example, Dugway Proving Ground). b. Elements of command. The key elements of command are authority and responsibility. Formal authority for command is derived from the policies, procedures, and precedents presented in chapters 1 through 3. c. Characteristics of command leadership. The commander is responsible for establishing leadership climate of the unit and developing disciplined and cohesive units. This sets the parameters within which command will be exercised and, therefore, sets the tone for social and duty relationships within the command. Commanders are also responsible for AR 600–20 18 March 2008/RAR 4 August 2011 1
