The Ausland Volunteers operates as a network built for efficiency and adaptability. Its mission is supported by a command structure designed to coordinate seamlessly at every level, ensuring all personnel are able to serve and lead effectively.
Strategic direction is held by the General Command, which defines objectives and ensures all formations operate within the mission and standards of the Order. National Command coordinates resources and operations across the regiments, aligning national capacity with operational requirements. Regiment Commands oversee state and territory operations, bridging national leadership with local units and adapting initiatives to regional needs.
Local Units form the operational core, where members train, assemble, and execute missions directly impacting their communities. Within these units, volunteer task groups are organised for specific assignments and operational demands.
The smallest operational element is the squad: four to five members working collaboratively under direction. Three to four squads form a section, the primary operational unit available to a Unit Command. Several sections form a unit, which serves as the principal body for town or city operations. Units are grouped into companies—three or more in number—to manage activity within a locality or small region. Four companies comprise a battalion, which operates as a cohesive force in larger regions or urban centres.
Battalions are organised into state-based regiments, enabling coordinated operations across broad areas. Multiple regiments may be brought together under divisional command, forming the largest force that can be mobilised under National Command for interstate operations.
