His opposite number in a CLO is entitled A/Operations Aide. To avoid confusion with the title Operations Officer, the Aide's title is always written in full, not abbreviated"Operations Aide." "Ops Aide" is incorrect. To further differentiate, "Ops Officer" now becomes "Mission Ops Officer." (CBO 81)
