Open Response (Chain of Command)

We need Chain of Command so that everyone understands what to do. What I mean by that is that with the chain of command lower ranked cadets aren't controlled by all of the higher ranked cadets. They have one person above them who tells them what to do, and that person in turn has someone e has to "answer" to. This means that the lower ranked cadets don't get confused by 100 different people telling them what to do when his leader told him what to do.

Chain of Command inn general is used so that military personnel give orders to only those directly below them in the chain of command, and receive orders from only those directly above them. For example, a common soldier who has a problem with carrying out an order is likely to get disciplined for not observing the chain of command if he skips the officer who is in direct command of him and directly appeals to a higher ranked officer in his chain of command.

The chain of command is the line of authority and responsibility along which orders are passed. The line will generally go from a higher ranked soldier who gives the order, i.e. an officer, down to a lower ranked soldier who is ordered to do something, i.e. a common soldier.

A successful use of the Chain of Command is the one that JROTC uses at Buckhorn. We have leaders that only tell the people directly under them what to do. That way the lower cadets don't get confused on what to do or who to listen to.
