Commander-in-Chief, Land Forces (CINCLAND), was a senior officer in the British Army. CINCLAND commanded HQ Land Forces, an administrative apparatus that had responsibility for all of the army's fighting units in the United Kingdom (excluding Northern Ireland), Germany and Brunei, together with training garrisons in Nepal, Belize, Canada and Kenya. CINCLAND was also the Standing Joint Commander (UK) (SJC(UK)), with responsibility for the provision of Military Aid to Civil Power within the United Kingdom. The position had existed since 1968, when it was known as General Officer Commanding Army Strategic Command. In 1972 it became Commander-in-Chief United Kingdom Land Forces (CINCUKLF). As from 1 April 2008, HQ Land Command was renamed HQ Land Forces (HQLF). Therefore, the Commander-in-Chief became Commander-in-Chief of HQ Land Forces. CINCLAND headed the Commanders-in-Chief Committee, a body established for contingency planning purposes.〔(Select Committee on Defence, March 2002 )〕 The post changed to a three-star position, Commander Land Forces, after 1 November 2011 following a major army command reorganisation.〔(Army Command reorganization ) Defence Marketing Intelligence, 10 November 2011〕 ==General Officer Commanding, Army Strategic Command== Holders of the post have been:〔(Army Commands )〕 *General Sir John Mogg 1968–1970 *Lt General Sir Mervyn Butler 1970–1971 *Lt General Sir Frank King 1971–1972 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「Commander-in-Chief, Land Forces」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
