c) In the case an operation is determined to apply to the roles of multiple divisions, each of those divisions will be in charge of their aspect of the operation, but operation will still be in the hands of that division which closes fits the overall type of the operation. In the case where this cannot be determined, the divisions will act as a Task Force as best they are able without a singular commander. The CEO or Vice-CEO may appoint a Task Force Commander should it be deemed necessary.
