Service vs. Headquarters

edit

Hey, can you explain the difference to me? I’m very familiar with U.S. military structure, so if you can conspire it to that, maybe it could help? Garuda28 (talk) 21:28, 15 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Good morning User:Garuda28. In Germany all people who work with IT to support the armed forces are grouped since 2 years together in a new branch. Like all medical people who are grouped in the medical branch of the armed forces. The new branch is called 'Cyber and Information Domain Service'. So everybody who is working in the domain of IT and cyber. This new Service, with about 17.000 people, has a headquarter in Bonn. This headquarter is called 'Cyber and Information Domain Service Headquarters'. LtGen Leinhos is as mentioned the chief of the hole IT and cyber Service and the Commander of the headquarter. In Germany the chief of any branch (we have 6 - Army, Air Force, Navy, Support (don't know the correct translation), Medical and Cyber and IT Services) is called "Inspector" and in English he is the chief of his area.
The article has more content about the headquarter. Who ever wrote it at the beginning without a real source was concentrating on the headquarter and its subordinated units. If the headline stays like it is the hole article has to be rewritten to fit to the topic.
