They’re like the go to SME regarding “port” operations. Oh and they fly planes and helicopters too!

Understand that the Army has Title 10 responsibility to run ports, but the 800 lbs gorilla for that is 7th Sustainment Bde at Eustis-Langley.<br /><br />The Army has limited capability to run an fixed wing or mixed use aerial port (APOD/APOE). It’s usually a Movement Control Team 88N and/or a Cargo Transfer Unit 88H press ganged into that role. The Air Force provides ( most of the time) an Airfield Departure Control Group that manages in and out bound flow of people and stuff. Not sure which AFSCs those are.<br /><br />Doctrine wise, the Army considers running helicopter landing zones an operations task. Usually a BSB (logistics peeps of multiple, non aviation MOSs) runs the BDE level heavy PZ….an additional duty that doesn’t happen everyday. Which is more of an event than a permanent “airport”. This is big in the 101st Airborne Division. Not all units move this way. Mostly light infantry and Air Assault<br /><br />The aviation units and ATC manage the running of their “home” airfields, with a designated Air Field Commander. It’s an operations task to deconflict Air Space so aircraft don’t crash into each other.

There are thousands of jobs at Ports and Airports. Ranging from skilled and unskilled labor. It all depends on what job you want and what transferrable skills you earned while in the Military. You could get a job as a ticket agent for an Airline without having served in the Military and you would still be working at the Airport. You need to dial in what you want to do in the Military and also define what you want to do in the civilian world.
