Which function is described by J/G-8?

• A. Civil Affairs: Assess the Civil Environment and Implement Civil Considerations into Operational Planning and Tactical Execution
• B. Inspector/Safety: Inspection of Subordinate Units, Request Mast
• C. Comptroller: Fiscal Management, Budgeting, Accounting, Disbursing, Financial Projections
• D. Communications: Voice, Data, Radio, Wire

Answer: (C)

J/G-8 is the command’s financial management office, responsible for fiscal matters across planning and execution. This includes budgeting, accounting, disbursing funds, and producing financial projections to ensure resources are tracked, allocated, and controlled effectively. That alignment makes it the Comptroller role, since budgeting, accounting, and financial planning are exactly what a Comptroller handles. The other areas map to non-financial functions: Civil Affairs deals with the civil environment and civil considerations in planning; Inspector/Safety focuses on unit inspections and safety oversight; Communications covers voice and data networks.
