	Task Force 16
		Task Force 16 is one of the most storied task forces in the United States Navy, a major participant in a number of the most important battles of the Pacific War.
		In August, the task force supported the landings on Guadalcanal, then fought in the Battle of the Eastern Solomons, followed by the Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands[?] in October, the Naval Battle of Guadalcanal[?] in November, and covered the retreat of TF 18[?] after the Battle of Rennell Island[?].
		In 1944 and 1945, the task force was a refueling unit consisting of destroyer escorts[?] and oilers[?].

	Stadium Task Force Draft
		The Task 14 Force recommends that the responsibility for cost overruns and construction 15 management be clearly delineated in the lease between the franchise and the facility 16 landlord, but under no circumstances should the state be considered as a financing 17 source for cost overruns.
		The Task Force anticipates that the 04 state will identify parameters for determining state participation and the location of the 05 facility or facilities will be determined through a negotiated agreement between the 06 franchise (tenant) and the local unit(s) of government (landlord).
		The Task Force recommends that any state financing not be released until the 12 team has negotiated a lease with a landlord, which may be a local unit of 13 government.

	Task Force
		The task organization is predicated on the mission by a war plan or an operational plan of a commander of a unified command, and as further delineated by the fleet commander-in-chief (naval component commander) and the numbered fleet commander.
		Designations for Task Forces subordinated to the Pacific and Atlantic Fleets generally follow this pattern, though the naive observer might conclude that these designations referred to units of the non-existent 1st Fleet [used for Pacific Fleet] and the equally non-existent 4th and 8th Fleets [used for the Atlantic Fleet].
		For major combat formations, the Task Force in the operational chain of command is equivalent to the Group in the administrative chain of command.
