Summary/Abstract: The article is analysing understanding the functioning mechanisms in communication and in interrelationship in military multicultural environment generating the necessity of understanding, adaptation and the creation of efficient mechanisms to adjust these relationships. Xeno-cultural images are resistant to change and seem to be cultural values, being part of the cultural nucleus of a nation that remain stable, with the changes coming gradually and the attitudes influenced by organizational policies. Language, the impact of national composition, cultural distances, the level of technological knowledge and stereotips are only some elements that are affecting communication in multinational military coallitions. The efficiency of the mission is proportional with the understanding linguistic and cultural knowledge, the harmonization of cultural differences and the cultivation of cultural aspects of military sub-cultures.
