The World Military Championships (WMC) are the world championships of the military sports, regularly organized by the Conseil International du Sport Militaire (CISM), covering 25 sports.[1][dead link]
History
[edit]CISM had its roots in World War II, with efforts to bring together members of the allied forces to bridge cultural and language barriers. This took place under the auspices of the Allied Forces Sports Council.[2] By 1947, the Soviet Union and eastern bloc nations had withdrawn from the Council, followed by the United States and United Kingdom.[2] The French armed forces picked up the concept and organised CISM with France, Belgium, Denmark, Luxembourg and the Netherlands as founding members under the motto "Friendship through sport". By 1985, eighty-two nations were competing.[2] Military athletes often are competing against Olympic competitors in CISM games and World Military Championships, earning the nickname "The Military Olympics.[2]
