command sponsorship

Military / Defense / US Army
English term or phrase: command sponsorship
A US soldier is getting a transfer to Korea/to Germany. The instructions inform him, among other things:
"Sponsorship: incoming soldiers will be a assigned a sponsor" then also
"Command sponsorship: All positions are eligible for command sponsorship".

I am at a loss to put this into German. I find plenty of items on "command sponsorship" when browsing but they are all in English. I played with "befohlene Förderung" oder "Auftragsunterstützung" but both are not solutions to my liking.
Your suggestions will be much appreciated.
