Abstract: Military policies are often promulgated from the echelon II and III level, but it is often difficult to ascertain whether they are interpreted and implemented as intended. There is often a communication gap. This article seeks to determine if data mining tools such as lexical link analysis can measure that gap in quantitative terms. It starts by examining how lexical link analysis can determine how policies are communicated through the various echelons, assessing whether lexical link analysis can be used to determine if policies are interpreted and redistributed as intended, and exploring what this data tells us about policy communication and the implications for policy execution. The author uses lexical link analysis to reveal if there is a degree of policy mismatch at lower echelon levels and makes assessments about this mismatch based on established communication theory. This paper validated that Naval aircrew’s understanding of policies is of vital importance and higher policy te nds to be interpreted and reissued with greater specificity as it moves down the chain of command as exemplified between Echelons IV and V.
