'extern' keyword for an array

In file AAA.c

const char CMD_Fire[] = "FIRE";

In file BBB.c

extern const char CMD_Fire[];

It seems that, the compiler is not able to know the size of CMD_Fire[], when compiling BBB.c

So, I have to hard code the size of CMD_Fire[] in BBB.c

Then, if I change the command to "Fire it!", I will need to change the size of CMD_Fire[] everywhere.

Is there any skill to handle this?
