Fleet Command, also known as Rebel Fleet Command, functioned as the command division of the Alliance Fleet, serving as the Fleet's voice within the Supreme Command. Admiral Gial Ackbar, holding the title of Admiral of the Fleet, typically represented this department; however, in his absence, a staff officer would take his place. While the staff officer lacked direct control over the Fleet, they possessed comprehensive knowledge of its condition and deployment, and were familiar with Ackbar's strategies and goals, enabling them to update other departments on the Fleet's situation. Fleet Command was organized into four primary divisions: Line Admirals, Starfighter Command, Fleet Intelligence, and Ordnance and Support.
