Chief of staff (military)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The chief of staff is the chief aide to the commander of larger military formations and units. It is sometimes the case that the chief of staff is more directly influential than the theoretical commander. This may be the case when the commander is a ceremonial head of the armed forces such as a Head of State.
