Not to be confused with the subcommanders, the subordinate Commanders of OCESS.


The Subcommander is a Commander of OCESS. The Subcommander is subordinate and assistant to the Mission Commander.

Selection

Similar to the Mission Commander, the hopeful Subcommander submits an application at the end of the school year. This application is read and evaluated by the current Mission Commander and the Admiral. The selected Subcommander is announced at the end-of-year barbeque. There is usually some ceremony involved in the announcement, involving the passing on of Office keys, the Subcommander Pin, and the Subcommander relic (the nature of which is classified).

Duties

Prior to the mission, the Subcommander's duties consist of helping the Mission Commander with their duties. This help may include writing, reading, and evaluating the Astronaut Applications, planning the mission (including meal schedules, shift schedules, experiments, navigation data, and any other paperwork), and ensuring that the Habitat is properly prepared for the mission. During the mission, the Subcommander is second in command of the Habitat, and will assume full command should the Mission Commander be rendered unfit for duty.
