  • OCS ~ EARLY PREDICTIONS/FINAL RESULTS When OCS Commenced
    OCS ~ EARLY PREDICTIONS/FINAL RESULTS When OCS commenced training officer cadets in January 1952, the early classes were informed that promotion prospects could be expected to attain the rank of Major in the Australian Regular Army. Probably not much thought was given to this possibility by these classes as the immediate aim of every cadet concentrated on finishing the course and graduating as a Second Lieutenant. However, as Graduates gained more experience, this early prediction probably entered the minds of those that were subject to it . Time would tell and tell it did! Promotion of Graduates from 1952 to 1959 tells a very different story from the stated outcome. Many Graduates were promoted above the rank of Major. The following list indicates only those Graduates who achieved one star (Brigadier) and the very first two star (Major General) levels, all within the first decade. So much for the early predictions! OCS’s early classes, however, foreshadowed the trend in ranks when the following first decade (1952 to 1959) promotions to one or two star level occurred: ➢ Brig Jim Furner, CBE – OCS Class of Jun ’52, ➢ Brig “Tan” Roberts – OCS Class of Jun ’52, ➢ Brig Lawrie Lewis – OCS Class of Dec ’52, ➢ Brig Graham Smith – OCS Class of Dec ‘52 ➢ Brig Ron Milliken – OCS Class of Jun ’53, ➢ Brig Terry Walker – OCS Class of Jun ’53, ➢ Brig Brian Cooper – OCS Class of Dec ’53, ➢ Brig John Deighton, AM, MC – OCS Class of Dec ’53, ➢ Brig John Cosson – OCS Class of Jun ’54, ➢ Brig Paul Lipscombe, AM – OCS Class of Jun ’54, ➢ Brig Brian Edwards – OCS Class of Dec ’56, ➢ Brig Terry Holland, AM – OCS Class of Jun ’58, ➢ Brig Pat Beale, DSO, MC – OCS Class of Dec ’58, ➢ Brig Doug Formby, AM – OCS Class of Dec ‘58 ➢ Brig Mike Holton, CSC – OCS Class of Jun ’59, ➢ Brig Ron Boxall – OCS Class of Dec ’59, and finally OCS’s first two-star graduate in ➢ Maj Gen David McLachlan, AO – OCS Class of Dec ’59.

  • Lieutenant General Ken Gillespie
    Lieutenant General Ken Gillespie Soldier, Battlefield Commander, Diplomat, Teacher and Corporate Leader Lieutenant General Ken Gillespie AC DSC CSM retired as Chief of the Australian Army in July 2011 after an amazing 43- year career. In 1968, when he was 16, Ken Gillespie joined the Australian Army as an apprentice bricklayer. The career that followed now must rate as one of the most amazing stories of workplace success in the modern era. Now Lieutenant General Gillespie enjoys the opportunity to share his insights and knowledge in a broad corporate environment. He is a gifted public speaker and is able to pitch his messages at many different levels of management. From apprentice brickie to Lieutenant General is a wonderful achievement and testament to his motivation and will to succeed. Lieutenant General Gillespie’s leadership is inspiring yet he still maintains the common touch … the brickie is still in his makeup! More about Ken Gillespie: The military identified the young man as a potential leader at an early stage and he was sent to the Officer Cadet School at Portsea. He graduated as a young officer in 1972 and was commissioned into the corps of the Royal Australian Engineers. In the years that immediately followed Ken Gillespie held a range of regimental and staff appointments where he performed many instructional, administrative and leadership functions, mainly associated with military engineering. During 1986 and 1987 he was the Australian Exchange Instructor at the Royal School of Military Engineering in the United Kingdom. In 1989 he was second in command of the 2nd Australian Contingent to the United Nations Transition Assistance Group in Namibia.

  • The Higher Command Structure for Joint ADF Operations
    Chapter 10 The Higher Command Structure for Joint ADF Operations David Horner An effective command structure for ADF operations is one of the most important requirements for the defence of Australia and its interests. Civilian strategic analysts sometimes dismiss their military colleagues' apparent obsession with command. In their view, issues of international relations, strategic and defence policy, force development and budgets are the heart of strategic analysis. But command is fundamental to a military organisation. Put simply, it is the means by which the government's wishes are translated into military outcomes. As the Vice Chief of the Defence Force (VCDF), Vice-Admiral Russ Shalders, put it in 2005, the number one outcome for the ADF, as endorsed by the government, is the conduct of operations.1 Command is not just about giving orders and ensuring that they are carried out. It is also about ensuring that the right orders are givenÐthat the plans both reflect government policy and are achievable. There are, of course, two elements to command. The first is the ability of individual commanders to complete their tasks, and this depends on personal qualities, such as technical knowledge, courage, robustness and character. The second element is the command structure. Commanders can only operate within the bounds of their legal authority and within the structures available to them. The command structure includes headquarters, from the strategic to the tactical levels, the communications links between them, and the intelligence systems to inform them. This chapter focuses on the second elementÐthe higher command structure for joint operationsÐas the most relevant to an enquiry into the broader aspects of defence policy.
