Unified Combatant Command
A Unified Combatant Command (COCOM) formerly known as "CINC" (pronounced "Sink") is a United States joint military command composed of forces from two or more services, has a broad and continuing mission, and is organized either on a geographical basis (known as "Area Of Responsibility", AOR) or on a functional basis. All COCOMs are commanded by either a four star general or admiral and are considered "joint" commands with specific badges denoting their affiliation.
