A command structure box may be used to summarize information about an individual military unit's parent and subordinate units; it should generally be used in conjunction with {{Infobox Military Unit}}. If needed, multiple boxes may be used to show the unit's command structure during different periods.

The box should be added using the {{command structure}} template, as shown below:

{{command structure
|name= 
|date=
|parent=
|subordinate=
}}
  • name – the name of the unit or formation.
  • dateoptional – the dates during which the given structure was in place.
  • parentoptional – the unit's parent unit.
  • subordinateoptional – the unit's subordinate units.
