Like regular Majors, Officers report to their onsite [[Sangheili Ultra|Ultra]] or, in the absence of an Ultra, directly to their [[Sangheili General|General]] or [[Shipmaster]]. Most Officers have a selection of units under their command, including Sangheili Minors, [[Unggoy]], and [[Kig-Yar]].{{Ref/Book|Enc11|Page=135}} | Officers are a subset of the Major rank.
