UNSC Naval Command (Matt-256)

The UNSC Naval Command, better known simply as Naval Command or colloquially as NAVCOM, is a unified command organization of the UNSC Defense Force and subordinate to the High Command, alongside its sister organizations, the Ground Command and Special Warfare Command. It was responsible for all naval operations, maintenance and special warfare.
==Background==
==Organization==
*Naval Command (NAVCOM)
**Fleet Command (FLEETCOM) - The primary subordinate command of NAVCOM, Fleet Command handles all ship deployments, mission structures and spaceborne operations. This includes troop and naval fighter transports. Due to this, it works closely with UniCom to coordinate troop deployments, air strikes etc.
***Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI) - Though officially subordinate to FLEETCOM, the Office of Naval Intelligence (formally known as the UNSC Military Intelligence Division) is, for all intents and purposes, an entirely seperate entity from even NAVCOM. It handles all UNSC intelligence, propaganda, internal affairs, covert and black operations, as well as all classified military projects and programs, including the NOVA Project and the SPARTAN-III Program.
****Prowler Corps (PC) - One of two naval sub-branches managed by ONI, the Prowler Corps maintain the Navy's fleet of prowler ships and the intelligence they gather. They work closely with FLEETCOM, sharing intelligence with the latter to aid in their objectives.
****Signal Corps (SC) - The second of the two naval sub-branches managed by ONI, the Signal Corps is a rather new organization founded during the Human-Covenant War. It's staffed by members of both the Marine Corps and the Navy, and are tasked with broadcasting radio transmissions in unpopulated sectors of space to mislead the Covenant, thus drawing them away from the UNSC's own colonies.
**Logistical Operations Command (NavLogCom) - The second largest subordinate command of NAVCOM, the Logistical Operations Command oversees all construction, maintenance and supply and materiél distribution efforts, mainly involving ships, ammunition, replacement parts and food.
***Office of Investigations (OI) - 
**Naval Special Warfare (NAVSPECWAR) - Responsible for all the Navy's Special Warfare operations, Naval Special Warfare is the smallest of NAVCOM's sub-commands. It works closely alongside Section III of the Office of Naval Intelligence, the latter often issuing mission orders to NAVSPECWAR teams and "cleaning up" afterwards if necessary. NAVSPECWAR also commands the Marine Orbital Drop Shock Troopers, and oversees the deployment of the SPARTAN-II Commandos.
==Subordinate units==
*NAVSPECWAR Group Four: A specialized element of the Naval Special Warfare Division commanded by Captain Salomon Martin, Group Four fought against the Covenant on many colonies, always attempting to slow down or beat any Covenant in the way. It also hosted Herald Team, a team of SPARTAN-III operators seperate from the Beta-5 Division.
==Notable Personnel==
*Fleet Admiral H.T. Ward
*Admiral Roland Freemont
*Captain Salomon Martin
