A Ministry of Defence or Defense (see spelling differences), also known as a Department of Defence or Defense, is the common name for a part of the government found in states where the government is divided into ministries or departments, responsible for matters of defence. Such a department usually includes all branches of the military, and is usually controlled by a Defence Minister, Minister of Defence, or Secretary of Defense.
Historically, such departments were referred to as a Ministry of War or Department of War, although such departments generally had authority only over the army of a country, with a separate department governing other military branches. Prior to WWII, most "Ministries of War" were Army ministries, while the Navy and the Air Force, if it existed as a separate branch, had their own departments. As late as 1953, for example, the Soviets for instance had a "Ministry of War" alongside a "Ministry of the Navy".
The tendency to consolidate and rename these departments to highlight their purpose as providing "defence" arose after World War II. In India, for example, "the name of the War Department was found objectionable in the sense that the concept had an aggressive aspect which was inconsistent with Indian traditions".

The Pentagon is the headquarters of the United States Department of Defense, located in Arlington County, Virginia. As a symbol of the U.S. military, "the Pentagon" is often used metonymically to refer to the U.S. Department of Defense. The Pentagon was designed by American architect George Bergstrom (1876–1955), and built by general contractor John McShain of Philadelphia. Ground was broken for construction on September 11, 1941, and the building was dedicated on January 15, 1943. General Brehon Somervell provided the major motive power behind the project; Colonel Leslie Groves was responsible for overseeing the project for the U.S. Army. The Department of Defense is an executive branch department of the federal government of the United States charged with coordinating and supervising ...
In the United States, Special Agent is usually the title for a detective or investigator for a state, county, municipal, federal or tribal government who conducts criminal investigations and has arrest authority. An Agent is a federal law enforcement officer with arrest authority but who does not conduct major criminal investigations or who may conduct investigations but does not have arrest authority. Special Agents are distinctly able to do both. Pursuant to Title 10 of the United States Code §1585, DCIS Special Agents conducting, supervising, or coordinating investigations of criminal activity in programs and operations of the Department of Defence have the authority to execute and serve any warrant or other process issued under the authority of the United States; to make arrests witho...

Defense systems analysis offers a way to reach a clearer understanding of how to approach and think about complex problems. It guides analysts in defining the question, capturing previous work in the area, assessing the principal issues, and understanding how they are linked. The goal of defense systems analysis is not necessarily to find a particular solution but to provide a roadmap to a solution, or an understanding of the relative value of alternative solutions. In this book, experts in the fieldall of them with more than twenty years of experienceoffer insights, advice, and concrete exampl...

A significant portion of the Department of Defense (dod) budget is spent on capabilities acquired as commercial It commodities, developmental It systems that support a broad range of warfighting and functional applications, and It components embedded in weapons systems. The ability of the Dod and its industrial partners to harness and apply It for warfighting, command and control and communications, logistics, and transportation has contributed enormously to fielding the world's best defense force. However, despite the Dod's decades of success in leveraging It acros...

These studies were intended to provide advice to the Department of Defense (dod), which sponsored these studies. The previous studies have been concerned with the role of statistical methods in testing and evaluation, reliability practices, software methods, combining information, and evolutionary acquisition. Industrial Methods for the Effective Testing and Development of Defense Systems is the latest in a series of studies, and unlike earlier studies, this report identifies ...
9/28/2016 Representative Collins (R-GA) tells FBI Director Comey "You Blew It" during today's testimony. Collins provided the FBI Director with several examples of similar cases where U.S. Military personnel have been prosecuted for lesser offenses. The unintended backlash now is that military and others are now planning to invoke the "Clinton Defense" should they ever be charged with anything remotely similar regarding classified information. Today, the House Judiciary Committee will hear from Director James Comey on the challenges facing the FBI and how the FBI is addressing them. From San Bernardino to Orlando to the most recent terrorist attacks in New York, New Jersey, and Minnesota, the United States has experienced a rise in radical Islamic terrorism and we must ensure that the FB...
