	German General Staff - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		The Prussian General Staff also enjoyed greater freedom from political control than its contemporaries, and this autonomy was enshrined in law on the establishment of the German Empire in 1871.
		In the field, the Chief of Staff of a formation had the right to disagree, in writing, with the plans or orders of the commander of the formation to which he was attached, and appeal to the commander of the next highest formation.
		Focusing exclusively on military aspects of the war, the General Staff ignored political needs, which were to be discovered during the war itself, for example with the women on the home-front.

		Lower-level general staff women express particular satisfaction with their work environment where flexibility to deal with family responsibilities is granted and where the team attitude in departments and units means that they are 'treated well'.
		General staff women are frequently unaware, too, of the legislative requirement for the employer to consult with female staff.
		Regular general staff meetings in some work places allows for discussion and resolution of many of the apparently trivial issues that are of concern to general staff and around which they feel they are entitled to greater say.

	Russian Military Reform - CDI RW 21 May 2004
		Gone from the draft law are the articles stating that in a state of war the General Staff becomes the operational command body not only of the armed forces, but also of the "other forces" attached to the dozen or so militarized government agencies not part of the Defense Ministry.
		The top jobs in the General Staff are currently held by the people who in 1997 insisted that merging the Strategic Missile Forces with the Space Forces and eliminating the central Ground Forces command were essential steps along the road to military reform.
		Removing the General Staff from the chain of command would also entail changes in the functions of military districts, which would need to be converted into strategic commands capable of integrating troops from all branches of the armed forces.

	Guardian Unlimited \| Special reports \| Staff cry poetic injustice as singing Ashcroft introduces patriot games
		Since John Ashcroft became US attorney general last year, workers at the department of justice have become accustomed to his daily prayer meetings, but some are now drawing the line at having to sing patriotic songs penned by their idiosyncratic boss.
		A group of Hispanic justice department employees were recently summoned to see the attorney general, and went along hoping that their boss might be making a special effort to promote diversity in the department's higher ranks.
		In January, a pair of 12ft statues in the atrium of a justice department building were covered by a blue curtain, on orders from Mr Ashcroft's office because the female figure Spirit of Justice was bare-breasted, and the body of her male partner, Majesty of Law, was not sufficiently covered by his toga.

		As chief of the general staff after 1881, Beck brought new rigor to the annual regimen of training rides for general staff officers (Generalstabsreisen) and training rides for generals (Generalsreisen), which consisted of elaborate war gaming on horseback, in the field but without troops.
		Breaking with a general custom of peacetime stationing that predated 1848, the new scheme left almost all regiments in their home districts, where they could be maintained at lower cost and more easily brought up to full strength in case of war.
