A.P.S.L Commissioned Officers
Commissioned Officers form the committee administration management of the league. This involves administration skills, but also involves different levels and areas of crisis assistance, some with expert skill sets. These ranks are signified by gold stripes. The more gold stripes, the more the responsibility. Commissioned Officers receive their commissions through internal ceremony. Commissioned Officers are able to perform the activities of other ranks, since a commission does not absolve them of preparatory survivalist workings.
Commissioned Officers are automatically admitted as members of state or national command. In the absence of state command, national command mandate applies, to keep operations consistent.
