The Army of Burgundie Force Restructuring Act was a bill that passed the ACAN of Burgundie in 2003. It addressed the archaic structure of the Army of Burgundie and to make it more agile and flexible to the 21st century threats and hazards that Burgundie was facing currently or was posturing to face in the future. It was the largest overhaul of the Army of Burgundie since the end of Operation Kipling.

Three Combat Commands:

  • Foreign Legion (8 corps) focus: expeditionary warfare
  • Metropole Forces (3 corps) focus: homeland defense/ready reserve
  • Global Support Command (5 corps): humanitarian aid, troops for LUDC/LoN/allied nation mission/treaty requirements, and army-wide combat support and services units (Gendarmerie and field sustainment brigades will be subordinate commands)
