The Commander Joint Expeditionary Force commands all task organizations employed in the amphibious operations at all objectives through inter-related Attack Force Commanders. The Commanding General Expeditionary Troops will be embarked on the flag-ship of the Commander Joint Expeditionary Force or stationed ashore when the situation requires, and will command all landing and garrison forces that are ashore. At each objective, the related Commander Attack Force will command the Landing Force through the related Commander Landing Force for ship to shore operations. As soon as the Commander Landing Force determines that the status of the landing operations permits, he will assume command on shore and report that fact to the related Commander Attack Force. For shore to shore operations the landing forces will be under the direct command of Commanders of Landing Forces and naval craft and supporting forces will be under the direct command of the Naval Commander of the Attack Forces concerned or an officer designated by him. As desired, requests for naval gunfire support and air support will be made to the related Commander Attack Force by the Commander of Landing Forces.
