===Leadership=== [[File:The I.T.S.A.A.D.C.O.T.F.O.I.K. from the Chickadee Challenge.jpg|left|thumb|205x205px|The I.T.S.A.A.D.C.O.T.F.O.I.K., from Carl Barks' "The Chickadee Challenge" (1955)]] The adult leadership of the Junior Woodchucks consists of troop commanders<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://inducks.org/story.php?c=W+US+++13-02|title=Land Beneath the Ground! {{!}} I.N.D.U.C.K.S.|website=inducks.org|language=en|access-date=2018-08-21}}</ref> (called Grand Moguls in European comics) whom often has vibrantly acronymized titles which demonstrates their ranking position and professional field. They have also been called Generals in a few stories by Carl Barks. The troop commanders' uniforms are militaristic in design. They are often white or brown in color with richly decorated gold embroideries; with their headgear often being a woodchuck cap<ref name=":2" /> or other types of [[List of headgear|military headwear]]. They are also often wearing a lanyard, filled with a large number of elaborately meritorious medals, badges & ribbons which makes them look very dignified and grandiose, and in some cases exceedingly pompous. Only Junior Woodchucks can later become troop commanders.<ref name=":1" /> Again, according to Don Rosa's story ''W.H.A.D.A.L.O.T.T.A.J.A.R.G.O.N''. the Junior Woodchucks of the World is governed by the Supreme Council; which is probably part of the World Office of the Junior Woodchucks, the organization's top office.<ref name=":3">{{Cite web|url=https://coa.inducks.org/story.php?c=W+WDC+181-01&redirected=1|title=The Chickadee Challenge|website=coa.inducks.org|access-date=2016-03-17}}</ref> The council consists of nine high-ranking members whom collectively is called the B.I.G.S.H.O.T.S. (Bureaucratic and Imposing Gathering of Supreme High Officials of the Topmost Strata) with the H.E.A.D.H.O.N.C.H.O. (Highest Executive Administrator of Divisional Headquarters and Organizer of Nearly Complete Hierarchical Overkill) as the head of the council.

Some of these include Commander-in-Chief<ref>{{Cite web|title = Operation St. Bernard|url = https://coa.inducks.org/story.php?c=W+WDC+125-02&search=Operation%2520St.%2520Bernard|website = coa.inducks.org|access-date = 2016-02-18}}</ref> and Exalted Grand Marshal.<ref name=":2">{{Cite web|title = Ten-Star Generals|url = https://coa.inducks.org/story.php?c=W+WDC+132-02&redirected=1|website = coa.inducks.org|access-date = 2016-02-18}}</ref> A few other acronymized titles within the Junior Woodchucks' leadership include: * (1955) G.U.C.O.T.R.O.I.S.
