Personally, I think the plan reads like it was written by a DA-centric, surgical strike command with a lot of emphasis on the dark side, when what we appear to be moving toward is a more FID-oriented engagement strategy which relies upon the cooperation of the theaters and the HNs.
Human domain remains primarily the realm of SF and some special units, despite what some would have you believe.
Finally, I would expect that the leadership of a joint command be primarily the responsibility of the branch with the preponderence of the forces, especially the ones with the ground combat experience.
But that is just me....

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - President Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
