  Figure 2-2. Supreme High Command
  2-17. Working with the staffs of each of the services, the Operations Direc-
  torate of the General Staff drafts the military SCP for the CGS. Once the
  CGS approves the military SCP, it becomes part of the national SCP, and the
  General Staff issues it to appropriate operational-level commanders. During
  peacetime and preparation for war, the Operations Directorate continues to
  review and refine the plan. The military SCP assigns forces to operational-
  level commands and designates AORs for those commands.
  2-18. During combat operations, the Operations Directorate is responsible,
  along with the Intelligence Directorate, for maintaining a continuous esti-
  mate of the situation for the SHC. Because of the uncertainties of combat, the
  Operations Directorate continually reevaluates the military SCP and modifies it
  or develops a new plan based on guidance from the CGS. The Organization and
  Mobilization Directorate determines the assets that each component of the mili-
  tary needs to execute its portion of the national strategic campaign.
  Theater Headquarters
  2-19. For the State, a theater is a clearly defined geographic area in which
  the OPFOR plans to conduct or is conducting military operations. Within its
  region, the State may plan or conduct a strategic campaign in a single thea-
  ter or in multiple theaters, depending on the situation. The General Staff
  may create one or more separate theater headquarters, even in peacetime,
  for planning purposes. However, no forces would be subordinated to such a
  headquarters until the activation of a particular SCP.
