I was just trying to memorize the big four and noticed that the OCS website provides the chain of command without the current names of anyone. I was just trying to fill it out and looking for some help. Maybe somebody can help check my work and add anything that I don't have. I imagine you won't know the first four names until you get there, but all the rest look like they could be learned in advance. I'll be heading there in 11 days.

The National Command Authorities are the President and the Secretary of Defense together.
By law, only the NCA has the authority to direct the Armed Forces in the execution of military action.

Just got a newer version in email from NRD Omaha. The new chain of command is because OCS is no longer under Naval Aviation Schools Command but is under the command of Officer Training Command - Pensacola (OTCP), so I'm going to memorize it as it is in this file. Hopefully it is right, the file says it was revised April 2003 so it should be good.

If anyone wants it here it is
