Özet:

 

This article explores the role of Foreign Language Education (FLE) in particular  English as a Foreign Language (EFL) in educating global warriors and global  military education. Parallel to the rise of English language as an essential tool  determining the success in the field of the global trade, by the foundation of  NATO and emergence of English speaking super powers, English language has  also become a major factor affecting the success of military operations all over the  globe. The fact that multinational command structures are deadly in need of  robust civil-military relations and interagency, intergovernmental organization,  and nongovernmental organization coordination has led to the rise of English as a  Global Lingua Franca. Similarly, mastering English language is a sine qua non for  the global citizens of the new era since they are supposed to operate as part of  joint organizational structures coordinating air, land, maritime, space, and special  operations. So, EFL education has become a core element in military academies  and war colleges all over the globe. This paper will also handle the cultural  aspects of language teaching to the global citizens in uniforms and offer some  implications for language teachers.
