The Admiral Benelux (ABNL) is the Commanding Officer of the combined military staff of the Royal Netherlands Navy and the Naval Component of the Belgian Armed Forces.〔(''Samenwerking met België'' ) — description of the international cooperation efforts of the Belgian and Dutch navies on the website of the Dutch Ministry of Defence.〕 The position of ABNL was created together with the combination of the Staffs of the two contributing navies on March 28, 1995 in the BENESAM Accord. The ABNL is responsible for the combined operations of the Dutch and Belgian navies and can be tasked with the responsibility for the operational readiness and deployment of the combined fleets in joint operations, both in war- and peacetime operations. Most of all the ABNL is responsible for the efficient use of joint material and personnel and oversees the joint training programs of the two navies.〔(''Admiraal BeNeLux - Organisatie'' ) — organizational structure of the ABNL command, from the website of the Belgian Navy.〕 ==Organizational structure== The Admiral Benelux is the commanding officer of the joint staffs who, together, form the ''Directorate of Operations (DOPS)''. The ABNL is assisted by the ''Deputy ABNL (DABNL)''. Under the terms of the BENESAM Accord, the ABNL position is held by the Commander of the Royal Netherlands Navy. The DABNL position is held by the Commander of the Belgian Naval Component.〔 The DOPS is headquartered with the Royal Netherlands Navy in Den Helder.〔 The main body of the ABNL command is the DOPS, although there is also a ''Directorate of Operational Support (DOST)''. The two together have operational control of the operational units of the two fleets. DOPS is divided into three branches: command, operational and support.〔 : *The command section of DOPS consists of the Staff Bureau and the ''Maritime Situation Center (MARSITCEN)''. The MARSITCEN is organized into a NATO standard N-structure and functions as the link of DOPS to the Belgian and Dutch Naval Command Centers. : *The operations branch of DOPS consists mainly of the ''Netherlands Maritime Force (NLMARFOR)''. NLMARFOR consists of the operational staff that can take direct command to execute missions and is equipped with the logistics facilities to coordinate naval missions and exercises. In addition to NLMARFOR, the operations branch of DOPS consists of the joint training programs for naval personnel: the ''Sea Training Command (STC)'' for the navies and the ''Marine Training Command (MTC)'' for the marine corps. : *The support branch of DOPS consists of the ''Marine Warfare Centre (MWC)''. This center comprises two different groups (the ''Maritime Doctrine and Tactics Centre'' and the ''Centre for Operational Data, Analysis and METOC''). The MWC is responsible for analysis and management of operational, tactical and strategic data used by DOPS. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Admiral Benelux」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
