  ADCON is the Army's authority to administer and support Army forces even while in a combatant command
  area of responsibility. The COCOM is the basic authority for command and control of the same Army forces.
  The Army is obligated to meet the CCDR's requirements for the operating forces. Essentially, ADCON
  directs the Army's support of operating force requirements.
  B-24. Unless modified by the Secretary of the Army, administrative responsibilities normally flow from the
  Department of the Army through the ASCC to those Army forces assigned or attached to that combatant
  command. ASCCs usually "share" ADCON for at least some administrative or support functions. "Shared
  ADCON" refers to the internal allocation of Title 10, U.S. Code, section 3013(b) responsibilities and
  functions. This is especially true for Reserve Component forces. Certain administrative functions, such as
  pay, stay with the Reserve Component headquarters, even after unit mobilization. Shared ADCON also
  applies to direct reporting units of the Army that typically perform single or unique functions. The direct
  reporting unit, rather than the ASCC, typically manages individual and unit training for these units. The
  Secretary of the Army directs shared ADCON.
