The US Army in Europe and the US Army in Africa has merged into one four-star command called the US Army in Europe and Africa. According to the author, the army has not stated how these amendments improve its ability to support American interests in these areas. The writers suggest that the military make changes to its headquarters at the theatre level to enable it to win in unpredictable circumstances. The headquarters acts as a principal command center optimized for the performance of responsibilities at the theatre level and an operational command site for controlling multi-team operations with NATO. Also, this command\u2019s army played a historical role on many occasions, such as the 2003 Iraq war. The author cites former Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy who said that the merger of US Army Europe and Africa headquarters is \u201clargely administrative.\u201d At the end of the article, the authors confirm previous advice that was offered to the army in order to manage its theatre of operations in Europe and Africa\u2014to deter a \u201cgreat-power war\u201d by cooperating with partners and playing a decisive role.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><b>By<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: Taqwa Abu Kmeil, CIGA Research
