id (Type='STRING')
This is the identifier of the relationship between the PSE Constituent Role and the Mission Type.
source_organization (Type='STRING')
The organization or information system that created the associated identifier. Alternatively this could be set to /NULL when Person or Information System is the source; see Identifier template characterizations.
Reference parameters
The following reference parameters are defined for this template:
operational_theatre(Type='ENTITY (State_definition)')
Allow the State_definition entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.
Note: The State_definition entity can be referenced in a template path by:
%^target = $operational_theatre.operational_theatre%
where target is the parameter to which the State_definition is bound.

    sd_class_name=@theatre_type,
    sd_ecl_id='urn:plcs:rdl:UK_Defence')/
%^operational_theatre = $representing_state_type.state_def%

-- id identifier
/identifier(
    ID=@id,
    source_organization=@source_organization,
    type='^operating_theatre_id_code',
    items=^operational_theatre)/
