A look at Reinforcement Tables settles the issue of Organizational alignment. SOUTH will become a secondary command like North. Current SOUTH assests will be transfered to other commands as needed to further the war effort. ADM Wm. Halsey can expect to turn command over to someone more suited to a less active theater. The Allies are very likely to swap Halsey and MacAuthur.

Transferring Assets from one command to the next can be costly, and SOUTH controls 6 US divisions, plus some RCTs and New Zealand formations. The NZ troops can be expect to reamin with south on garrison duty. There is great doubt that the island nation could sustain a formation involved in heavy combat.

The smaller assets like Engineers and Squadrons are much less costly, and could make the transition sooner.
