<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

<p>The Defence Command was established on the basic of law no. 334 of 18 June 1969 about the origination of the Danish Defence; in order to reduce resources expended and make a true combined Defence command of Denmark. It was a continuation of the Danish defence re-construction of 1950, which erected Ministry of Defence, Chief of Defence, Defence Staff, <a href="Army_Command_(Denmark)" title="Army Command (Denmark)">Army Command</a>, Søværnskommandoen and Flyverkommandoen.

</p><p>These latter commands were in 1969 combined into one and placed under the Ministry of Defence, giving the Chief of Defence full administrative and operational command of all branches of the Danish military. The staff of these former branch commands continued to exist inside FKO, but in 1982, which saw a major reconstruction of FKO, they too vanished in favour of an even more branch independent organisation. The reorganization resulted in a unified command structure similar to the previous <a href="Generalkommandoen" title="Generalkommandoen">General Command</a>.

</p><p>The <a href="Danish_Defence_agreement_2005%E2%80%9309" title="Danish Defence agreement 2005–09">Danish Defence agreement 2005–09</a> called for another major re-construction of the Danish military, affecting the origination of FKO.

</p><p>Between 1973 and 2006 FKO was located in <a href="Vedb%C3%A6k" title="Vedbæk">Vedbæk</a> (Henriksholm Allé) a little north of <a href="Lyngby" class="mw-redirect" title="Lyngby">Lyngby</a>, in a modern steel and concrete building, built 1970 – November 1972 by <a href="Danish_Defence_Estates_and_Infrastructure_Organisation" title="Danish Defence Estates and Infrastructure Organisation">Defence Construction Service</a>. FKO moved to this building in March 1973.

</p><p>FKO moved to Søarsenalet on <a href="Holmen_Naval_Base" title="Holmen Naval Base">Holmen Naval Base</a> on July 24, 2006.

</p><p>As a result of the <a href="Danish_Defence_Agreement_2013%E2%80%9317" class="mw-redirect" title="Danish Defence Agreement 2013–17">Danish Defence Agreement 2013–17</a>, the FKO saw major structural reorganization, to such an extent that it was renamed <b>Joint Defence Command</b> (<a href="Danish_language" title="Danish language">Danish</a>: <i lang="da">Værnsfælles Forsvarskommando</i>).<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> On 1 January 2019, as part of the <a href="Danish_Defence_Agreement_2018%E2%80%9323" class="mw-redirect" title="Danish Defence Agreement 2018–23">Danish Defence Agreement 2018–23</a>, the name was reverted to the previous name.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
