the British people and Navy absorbed the notion of a decisive victory at sea. (Impact of war REF).

Doctrinal Reference Publication 1 (ADRP 1, 2015) defines what the Army Profession means and outlines several different key tenets on which it resides.

U.S History of Unity of Command A unity of command is an essential factor for success in any distinct task. It is paramount to assign troops under one command in order to achieve a distinct objective. The idea of a unified command originates back to the Civil War. The ascent of General U. S.
