Western Regional Command (Denmark)

The Western Regional Command () (known until 1923 as 2nd General Command ()) was the overall command of all Royal Danish Army units in Jutland and on Funen. It was split into four military regions, and was responsible for the regional defence. In 1990, the Regional Commands were disbanded and control was collected at the newly created Army Operational Command.
History.
Originally named the General Command Northern Jutland, it was one of five General Commands. In 1855, it absorbed the General Command of Funen and was renamed the 2nd General Command. In 1923, the 2nd General Command was disbanded. Overall command was given to the Jutland Division in 1932.
In 1950, as part of expansive rebuilding and reorganization of the army, the General Command was revived as the Western Regional Command. In the beginning there was large focus on having a larger defence in Jutland and the 2nd General Command. However, after the West German rearmament, focus was sifted to the Eastern Regional Command. In case of war, the command would be placed under the control of the Allied Forces Northern Europe.
Following the end of the Cold War, there was a political wish to reduce military spending along with greater centralization. This led to the Western Regional Command being disbanded in 1990 and control given to the newly created Army Operational Command.
