Staff Organization
From Air-Force.ca Wiki
The continental staff system (AKA: the general staff system) is used (for the most part) in all NATO countries. This staff system is employed in most Canadian formations. The Land Staff, Maritime Staff and Air Staff do not use the continental staff system in NDHQ, rather they use bureaucratic terminology to denote the traditional functions.
