12 Romanian Military Thinking ~ 4/2007 Dramatic attraction of chance in front of death and symbolic organization of invincibility, the Soldier Soldier Soldier Soldier Soldier seems to be rather a ritual development of spectacular concepts than a monument of unpredictable energy that is procedurally condensed into a fighter with a physiognomy that has no relation to time. Today, when insecurity menaces the ongoing human condition worldwide, the Soldier Soldier Soldier Soldier Soldier is the determined stake of security but, properly preserving his call, his operational justification has been convincingly developed towards actions other than war that are sometimes tougher than war itself. A social being par excellence, the Soldier is almost all the time kept somehow far from the social space he actually belongs to and unconditionally and wholly integrates his own condition into. It is maybe the reason why, more often than not, his sacrifice is decently acknowledged. There is that kind of decency in this recognition that is from time to time concentrated in the Monument to the Unknown Soldier worldwide. du possible et l’invincibilité de la postmodernité au-dessus de sa propre condition. Attraction dramatique de la chance devant la mort et organisation symbolique de l’invincibilité, le le le le le Soldat Soldat Soldat Soldat Soldat semble être plutôt un déroulement rituel de concepts extraordinaires qu’un édifice de force imprévisible, réduit procédural dans un combattant avec une physionomie intemporelle. Aujourd’hui, quand l’insécurité menace globalement l’état ininterrompu de la condition humaine, le le le le le Soldat Soldat Soldat Soldat Soldat est l’enjeu déterminé de la sécurité, mais, en conservant adéquat son rôle, son devoir opérationnel a été développé dans une manière convaincante vers des actions autres que la guerre, plus difficiles, parfois, que la guerre même. Etant social par excellence, le Soldat se trouve souvent solitaire de l’espace social auquel lui, au fait, appartient et il soumet sans conditions et intégralement sa propre condition. C’est peut-être la raison pour laquelle, le plus souvent, son sacrifice est y reconnu avec décence. Une décence concentrée, de temps en temps, partout, dans le Monument du Soldat Inconnu.

CONSIDERATIONS CONSIDERATIONS CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING REGARDING REGARDING REGARDING REGARDING THE THE THE THE THE “COMMAND “COMMAND “COMMAND “COMMAND “COMMAND AND AND AND AND AND CONTROL” CONTROL CONTROL CONTROL CONTROL CONCEPT CONCEPT CONCEPT CONCEPT CONCEPT Captain Ion DUMITRA{CU ~ Coordinating Officer, EU Military Committee Working Group ~ The article approaches the “command” and “control” concepts from their perspective of essential elements within a military system, which allow, through the agency of the commander, the organisation, functioning and fulfilment of his objectives. In the first part, the role and importance of command and control are presented, underlining the fact that, through them, military forces are provided with precise goal and direction. Then, command and control are defined in accordance with specialised documents, especially from American publications. Thus, the NATO terminology does not precisely define the content of the syntagm “command and control”, it rather defines the relations between the two terms, especially within the command arrangements that are specific to multinational operations. To conclude, the author states that a cultural change with regard to the organisational management is extremely necessary, so that it could be accepted by the military community as a basic element and not as a situational phenomenon. he syntagm “command and control” is frequently used in operational language and quite often met in military publications. As they reflect the very substance of any military system, command and control are key elements facilitating its organization, operation and reaching objectives, through the agency of the commander1 . Command and control become manifest, under various forms, within all human organizations, let them be less or more hierarchically structured, as essential functions, specific to organization and leadership. David Alberts, in his “Arrangements for Peace Operations” 2 T , noted the occurrence and separately emergence of the command and control concept within the military domain and industrial management, mainly as a result of the specific character of war. The time pressure and high costs caused by human error during wartime represent, in the author’s opinion, major characteristics that have influenced military thinking in establishing command’s architecture over time. In spite of its extensive use, command and control seem not to be accurately defined and thoroughly 1 Marine Corps Doctrinal Publication, 1996. 2 Alberts David and Hayes E.
