a. The chain of command assists commanders at all levels to achieve their primary function of
2976

b. Commanders
delegate sufficient authority to soldiers in the chain of command to accomplish their assigned duties, and commanders may hold these soldiers responsible for their actions.

Each company-sized unit will have two cooks s,e,g_. and a small, state-of-the-art field kitchen. This provides a limited capability to prepare or heat
co'ciefpmeals and supplements. An improved containerized capability for providing responsive laundry
and shower support well forward on the battlefield must be developed. Frontline soldiers require brief respites from the rigors associated with combat. A facility complex (Force Provider) will be available in which they can shower, clean their clothes, eat hot meals, and rest in an environmentally controlled shelter.

Command, b. Elements of command. c. 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. (1) Commanders and other leaders committed to the
professional Army ethic promote a positive environment. If leaders show loyalty to their soldiers,
the Army, and the Nation, they earn the loyalty of their soldiers. If leaders consider their soldiers'
needs and care for their well-being, and if they demonstrate genuine concern, these leaders build
a positive command climate. (2) Duty is obedient and disciplined performance. Soldiers with a
sense of duty accomplish tasks given them, seize opportunities for self-improvement, and accept
responsibility from their superiors. Soldiers, leader and led alike, work together to accomplish the
mission rather than feed their self-interest..
