Chief of Defence The Chief of Defence ( CHOD ) is the highest ranked commissioned officer of a nation ' s armed forces . The term CHOD is in common use within NATO and the European Union as a generic term for the highest national military position within the NATO and EU member states , rather than the actual term used for individual positions . Thus , irrespective if the formal national designation of that position is some variation on " Commander - in - Chief " , " Chief of Staff " , " Supreme Commander " or something else , they can all be referred to unambiguously as CHODs in NATO and EU terminology , although other terms are sometimes also seen within NATO . Thus , the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is the CHOD of the United States , the Chief of the Defence Staff is the CHOD of United Kingdom , and the Chief of Defence ( " Forsvarssjefen " ) is the CHOD of Norway . Both NATO and EU occasionally hold CHODs meetings of the NATO Military Committee and the European Union Military Committee respectively . CHOD positions by NATO country . Within member states of NATO , the following national positions are the CHOD positions . Sometimes more than one form of translation into English is encountered .
