119 Advantages of
Assigning Forces
Lt. Col. Heather Reed, U.S. Army
Assigning U.S. forces to combatant commands
could be an effective way to balance interests
as well as budgets. A combatant commander’s
authority to control military operations would
remain separate from a service’s authority
to control administrative functions, so service
leaders should not be concerned about
competing chains of command, according to
this author.
