Personalwesen - Human resources Explanation: - -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2018-02-14 08:42:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Equivalent to G1 in the British army. G1 Branch Responsible for personnel matters including manning, discipline and personnel services. http://www.armedforces.co.uk/army/listings/l0005.html -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 41 mins (2018-02-15 07:44:02 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It would seem that S1 is also used outside the German army nowadays: Manpower or personnel The manpower or personnel officer supervises personnel and administration systems. This department functions as the essential administrative liaison between the subordinate units and the headquarters, handling personnel actions coming from the bottom up (such as a request for an award to be given to a particular soldier) or from the top down (such as orders being received from the army level directing that a particular soldier be reassigned to a new unit outside the command). In army units, this person is often called the Adjutant. The S1 also works with the postal mailing office. S-1 deals with awards and ranks as well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staff_(military) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 7 hrs (2018-02-15 14:14:36 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I notice that the Australian has SPSOs (Senior Personnel Staff Officers). This might be appropriate, with or without the "senior". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 7 hrs (2018-02-15 14:14:58 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Australian army! |
