Noting that general military regulations (GMR) contain numerous references to aspects of nonverbal behavior expressed as prescribed behavior, we considered necessary a new reading of GMR as nonverbal communication handbooks. This new reading is possible and it reveals important aspects with regard to opportunities of education or adequate training, in agreement with some good knowledge in the field of communication sciences. This paper aims at setting up a prescriptive nonverbal profile of the Romanian soldiers in relation to behavioral requirements resulting from the current GMR of the Romanian Armed Forces. The research method consists of documents analysis and comprises: 1. placement of four general normative documents into a different context (a communicative one); 2. identification of explicit and implicit nonverbal communication prescriptions included in the body of these normative texts; 3. analysis of the nonverbal prescription in relationship with the major classes of nonverbal behavior and 4. configuration of a nonverbal profile of Romanian soldiers based on the GMR behavioral prescriptions. In this respect, the paper is similar with some projective or normative documents (regulations, memoranda, etc.) developed by institutions such as the Army Research Institute for Behavioral and Social Sciences and the Committee on Opportunities in Basic Behavioral and Social Sciences Research of the US. Army (Katz et al., 2006; Blascovitch & Hartel, 2008; Yager et al., 2009 etc.), designed to identify the role of nonverbal communication in the military context, especially in the context of intercultural actions in different theaters of operations. Following this study, we intend to focus our future research in the field of nonverbal communication on the Romanian military context, in order to subsequently build a first necessary instrument for the development of nonverbal communicative competence within the Romanian Armed Forces.
