Explained in plain English

What is 'military centralisation'?

Centralising armed forces, as the Octagon aims to do, means bringing various military branches and commands under a single, unified authority and location. This can improve coordination, speed up decision-making, and enhance overall operational effectiveness during both peacetime and conflict. It's a common strategy for large militaries to streamline their operations.
