This designation replaces and subsumes the Executive Agent designations made in references (c) and (d). <br>APPLICABILITY AND SCOPE. This Directive: <br>Applies to the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), the Military Departments, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Combatant Commands, the Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Defense, the Defense Agencies, the DoD Field Activities, and all other organizational entities in the Department of Defense (hereafter referred to collectively as the "DoD Components"). The term "Military Services" as used herein applies to the Army, the Navy, the Air Force, the Marine Corps, and the Coast Guard (when not a part of the Navy). <br>Applies to all assignments (whether permanent or temporary duty) of DoD military and civilian personnel in support of UN Missions, but does not apply to the deployment of units in support of UN operations. When the deployment of units is required, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff shall prepare the appropriate orders for approval by the Secretary of Defense. <br>Applies to authorized personnel support to a UN Mission in place on the effective date of this Directive and to such support to a UN Mission in the future. <br>Takes precedence over DoD memoranda or other issuances that contain conflicting guidance on the assignment of personnel to UN Missions or Executive Agent responsibilities for such assignments.
