For the first time in its history, U.S. Special Operations Command is an equal among the military services, Acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller announced on Wednesday.
“I am here today to announce that I have directed the special operations civilian leadership to report directly to me instead of through the current bureaucratic channels,” Miller said during an unannounced visit to Fort Bragg, North Carolina. “This historic step finalizes what Congress has authorized and directed and will put Special Operations Command on par with the military services for the first time.”
The top Pentagon civilian official who oversees special operations had previously reported to the undersecretary of defense for policy, said Pentagon spokeswoman Navy Cmdr. Candice Tresch.
Now, the assistant secretary of defense for special operations and low-intensity conflict will report directly to Miller and he will also be in the administrative chain of command for U.S. Special Operations Command, Tresch said.
Miller’s announcement means that the Defense Department has expanded the responsibilities of the assistant secretary of defense for special operations and low intensity conflict, which Congress mandated in December 2016.
Now that these reforms have been implemented, they will streamline the flow of information and allow defense officials to better support service members, Miller said on Wednesday.

We were just discussing this on another thread.
The crayon version...
Each service has a civilian leader.. Sec Army, Sec Navy, Sec AF.. etc. SOCOM also had a civilian leader Sec, but did not report directly to SecDef like the others. Administrative and reporting change.... Sec SOCOM now reports directly to the SecDef.
SecDef spent entire career as a SOCOM warrior, elevated his crew to report directly to him...easy...would you not take care of your boys if you could?

Sorry to be thick but who are these civilian special operations groups? Is he talking about the CIA, FBI, etc?
It's civilian leadership of the socom, not civilian operators. Just like secretary of the navy, etc are civilians.
Yes, that's the surface narrative. It's the shiny object in the left-hand for distraction so you don't see what the right hand is doing
