I think that, because PT boats were pretty much deployed as squadrons within a command area, the Area Commander was in charge of the PT boats within his command. So, unlike submarines or destroyers, which could move independently between command areas on assignment, the PT boats remained within one area unless the squadron as a whole was reassigned.
I think it was Captain Binghamton
