Which geographic combatant command is responsible for Europe?

• A. USEUCOM
• B. USCENTCOM
• C. USNORTHCOM
• D. INDOPACOM

Answer: (A)

Geographic combatant commands are organized by region, with each command responsible for planning and conducting operations within its designated area. Europe falls under United States European Command, which maps to security and military activities across that continent and works with European allies, including NATO, to address regional priorities. The other commands focus on different regions: CENTCOM handles the Middle East and parts of Central Asia, NORTHCOM covers North America, and INDOPACOM oversees the Indo-Pacific. So for Europe, the command charged with that region is United States European Command.
