− | Un '''militar''' es un individuo que forma parte de unas [[Fuerzas Armadas]], ostentando un [[Rango (militar)|puesto jerárquico]], (''rango'' o ''grado'') dentro de ellas. Por lo tanto no es ''militar'' el perteneciente a cualquier grupo armado más o menos organizado, sino el miembro de unas fuerzas armadas dependientes de un estado, sean estas mayoritariamente profesionales o formadas por ciudadanos reclutados (caso de la [[leva]]). Dichas fuerzas "no militares" se conocen como [[paramilitar]]es.

− | Armed forces may be organized as ''standing forces'' (e.g. [[regular army]]), which describes a professional army that is engaged in no other profession than preparing for and engaging in warfare. In contrast, there is the ''citizen army''. A citizen army (also known as a [[militia]] or [[reserve army]]) is only mobilized as needed. Its advantage lies in the fact that it is dramatically less expensive (in terms of wealth, manpower, and opportunity cost) for the organizing [[society]] to support. The disadvantage is that such a "citizen's army" is less well trained and organized.

− | A compromise between the two has a small cadre of professional [[NCO]]s (non-commissioned officers) and officers who act as a skeleton for a much larger force. When war comes, this skeleton is filled out with conscripts or reservists (former full-time soldiers who volunteer for a small stipend to occasionally train with the cadre to keep their military skills intact), who form the wartime unit. This balances the pros and cons of each basic organization, and allows the formation of huge armies (in terms of millions of combatants), necessary in modern large scale [[war]]fare.

− | == Traducción inglesa ==
| |
− | Aunque ''militar'' es la traducción literal de ''military'', el término inglés también se usa para describir lo que en español se conoce comúnmente como '''[[ejército]]''': el conjunto de personas que forman unas [[fuerzas armadas]]. Si se consulta documentación en inglés, hay que tener presente esta diferencia de significado.

| |
− | ===Military procurement===
| |
− | Military procurement refers to common regulations and requirements for a ship or a detached unit to requisistion and draw on a base's facilies (housing, pay, and rations for detached personnel), supplies (most commonly food stocks or materials, and vehicles) by the service running a primary base; e.g. Army units detached to or staging through an [[air base]], a [[vessel]] calling at a port near an army or air base, an army unit drawing supplies from a naval base.
| |
− | | |
− | ===Military transport===
| |
− | Military transport would pertain to an equipment trans-shipped via a sister service, or an individual detached for a technical school operated by a sister service, or the travel orders and authorization of such an individual to proceed via a sister services vehicles, as well as the drawing (loan of) transportation assets ([[staff car]]s, [[High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle|Hum-Vees]], [[military truck]]s) operating from the primary base command.
| |
− | | |
− | ===Military Justice===
| |
− | [[Military_law|Military Justice]], as in the [[Uniform Code of Military Justice]]. Most nations have a separate [[code of law]] which regulates both certain activities allowed only in war, as well as provides a code of law applicable only to a [[soldier]] in war (or 'in [[uniform]]' during peacetime).
| |
− | | |
− | For example, in the [[United States]], the [[statutory law]]s set down by [[United States Congress|Congress]] to apply to the ''individual conduct'' within any ''military force'' of the [[United States]] are known as the [[Uniform Code of Military Justice]]. The code includes specific articles under which a soldier or sailor would be tried for infractions ranging from minor ([[Late Return]], [[petty theft]]) to severe ([[Rape]], [[Murder]]); this code is usually referred to by the [[acronym]] [[UCMJ]].
| |
− | | |
− | ===Military strength===
| |
− | Military strength is a term that describes a [[quantification]] or reference to a nation's standing military forces or the capacity for fulfillment of that military's role. For example, the military strength of a given country could be interpreted as the number of individuals in its [[armed forces]], the destructive potential of its [[arsenal]], or both. For example, while [[People's Liberation Army|China]] and [[Military of India|India]] maintain the largest armed forces in the world, the [[U.S. Military]] is considered to be one of the world's strongest, although the certainty of such a claim cannot be ascertained without a detailed analysis of opposing military forces in relation to one another as well as taking into account the field(s) of [[battle]] and [[military tactics|tactics]] used in such a conflict. [[Israel]] as well has also been described as the best trained and best operating army in the world, although they are small they are said to make up for it with their intense, elite training and their loyalty and dedication. The Israeli Air Force has widely been considered as the greatest in the world. Israel has, on occasion, even trained American Air Force fighter pilots, as well as staging Israel vs. US aerial 'laser' dog-fights in which Israeli pilots have 'shot down' more than twenty times as many jet fighter planes as the US 'shot down'.

− | ===Military force===

| |
− | ## Many books about [[World War II|WWII]], and other wars, focus on the military battles and campaigns. This one focuses on support roles that gave the [[Allies]] the edge when the [[Axis Powers|Axis]] seemed to be ahead in so many senses.
| |
− | ## [[Russia]] relocated their industry far from the front.
| |
− | ## There was a structure of [[Scientific Management]] in the U.S.A., unheard of in the [[Axis Powers]].
| |
− | ## [[Axis Powers|Axis]] nations military, particularly in [[Japan]], had an adversarial relationship that was more important to them than the best interests of their nations.
| |
− | ## [[Allied]] interception of coded radio signals, and strict secrecy of what they learned from this.
