Operating Location
Occasionally, when a very small group of people is separated from the parent unit and the number involved is so small that a detachment seems unnecessary, an operating location (OL) may be designated to account for the people by location. Operating locations do not have commanders, although the highest ranking individual is usually placed in charge. An operating location on one unit may not be reassigned to another unit, although it may be attached to another for operational or administrative control.
