I don't have a link handy, but with regards to the example you brought up, I'm using a 2001 Army SOF Intelligence manual as a guide, although I've tweaked some of the ideas a bit to better fit the (fictional) GI Joe premise. The headquarters Intelligence Officer is a staff position—it is filled by an SOF officer who is in charge of the headquarter's S2 functions.
The Intelligence Officer in the Intelligence Support Element is an actual Military Intelligence-coded position. He/She is an MI officer who directly oversees the actual intelligence collection and analysis performed by MI personnel.

Without getting into a lengthy discussion about the differences between ADCON, OPCON, TACON, and Support, let's say that for the purposes of functional deployment, they answer to the GI Joe leadership by virtue of a formal relationship between GI Joe and an equivalent or higher echelon combat support/combat service support organization, sort of like the relationship that exists between, say, an Army Ranger company and the Air Force Squadron supplying it with enlisted TACP personnel. At this point, I'm just taking for granted that GI Joe has an external CS/CSS organization and they have some sort of formal support relationship under JSOC. It would be too much work (for me, at least) to try to come up with a detailed, imagined account of that (I like charts and organizational outlines and all that stuff, but that starts to sound too much like real work
).
