Chapter IV (5) The degree of authority to act in the name of and for the JFC is a matter to be specifically prescribed by the JFC. (6) Orders and directives from a higher to a subordinate command should be issued in the name of the JFC of the higher command to the JFC of the immediate subordinate command and not directly to elements of that subordinate command. Exceptions may sometimes be required under certain emergency or crisis situations. C2 of nuclear forces is an example of one such exception. (7) To expedite the execution of orders and directives and to promote teamwork between commands, a JFC may authorize the command’s staff officers to communicate directly with appropriate staff officers of other commands concerning the details of plans and directives that have been received or are to be issued. (8) Each staff division must coordinate its actions and planning with the other staff directorates concerned and keep them informed of actions taken and the progress achieved. Each general or joint staff directorate is assigned responsibility for a particular type of problem and subject, and for coordinating the work of the special staff divisions and other staff elements that relate to that problem or subject. (9) Joint staff directorates and special staff sections should be limited to those functions for which the JFC is responsible or that require the JFC’s general supervision in the interest of unity of effort. (10) The authority that establishes a joint force should make the provisions for furnishing necessary personnel for the JFC’s staff. b. Staff Organization. The staff organization should generally conform to the principles established in this section. (1) Principal Staff Officer. The chief of staff (COS) functions as the principal staff officer, assistant, and advisor to the JFC. The COS coordinates and directs the work of the staff directorates. One or more deputies to the COS and a secretary of the staff may be provided to assist the COS in the performance of assigned duties. A deputy COS normally should be from a Service other than that of the COS. The secretary of the staff is the executive in the office of the COS and is responsible for routing and forwarding correspondence and papers and maintaining office records. (2) Personal Staff Group of the Commander. The JFC’s personal staff performs duties prescribed by the JFC and is responsible directly to the JFC. This group, composed of aides to the JFC and staff officers handling special matters over which the JFC exercises close personal control will include a staff judge advocate, political advisor, PA officer, inspector general, provost marshal, chaplain, surgeon, historian, and others as directed. JFCs should be aware that participation in multinational operations may affect the size and responsibilities of this group. (3) Special Staff Group. The special staff group consists of representatives of technical or administrative services and can include representatives from government or IV-14 JP 1
Joint Command Organizations nongovernmental agencies. The general functions of the special staff include furnishing technical, administrative, and tactical advice and recommendations to the JFC and other staff officers; preparing the parts of plans, estimates, and orders in which they have primary interest; and coordinating and supervising the activities for which each staff division is responsible. Because the headquarters of a joint force is concerned primarily with broad operational matters rather than with technical problems associated with administration and support of assigned and/or attached forces, this group should be small to avoid unnecessary duplication of corresponding staff sections or divisions within the Service component headquarters. When a JFC’s headquarters is organized without a special staff group, the officers who might otherwise compose the special staff group may be organized as branches of the divisions of the joint staff or as additional joint staff divisions. (4) Joint Force Staff Directorates. The joint staff group typically is made up of staff directorates corresponding to the major functions of command, such as personnel, intelligence, operations, logistics, plans, and communications systems. The head of each staff directorate may be designated as a director or as an assistant COS. The directors or assistant COSs provide staff supervision for the JFC of all activities pertaining to their respective functions. (5) Liaison Officers and/or Agency Representatives. Liaisons or representatives from various higher, lower, and adjacent organizations, DOD agencies, and non-DOD entities are normally spread throughout the joint force staff and not grouped as a separate entity. However, considering the increasing complexity of joint and/or interagency coordination, the JFC may decide to consolidate, at least administratively, liaisons and representatives in a single interagency office, and then provide them to specific directorates or components where they would best be employed and of value to their parent agency or command. The administration and assignment of liaison officers is normally under the cognizance of the deputy JFC or the COS. 8. Service Component Commands a. A Service component command, assigned to a CCDR, consists of the Service component commander and the Service forces (such as individuals, units, detachments, and organizations, including the support forces) that have been assigned to that CCDR. Forces assigned to CCDRs are identified in the GFMIG signed by SecDef. Service components can only be assigned under COCOM to one CCDR. However, Service component commanders may support multiple CCDRs in a supporting relationship, while not assigned to any of the supported CCDRs. b. Designation of Service Component Commanders. With the exception of the commander of a CCMD and members of the command’s joint staff, the senior officer of each Service assigned to a CCDR and qualified for command by the regulations of the parent Service is designated the commander of the Service component forces, unless another officer is so designated by competent authority. The assignment of any specific individual as a Service component commander of a CCMD is subject to the concurrence of the CCDR. IV-15
