USTRANSCOM / DTR Requirements

Defense Transportation Regulation (DTR). Page III-303-4 of the DTR is very clear that:

 “g. Deploying unit will:

(1) Prepare passengers and cargo for airlift IAW procedures set forth in this Regulation, Part I, Chapter 103; Part II, Chapter 203, and Part III, Appendix H.

(2) Prepare and certify hazardous cargo and equipment.

(3) Prepare and certify aircraft load plans.

(4) Provide trained load teams to load, off-load, and secure cargo to aircraft.

(5) Furnish any required shoring, dunnage, and vehicle operators.

(6) Provide personnel and equipment to perform A/DACG functions as directed by their major command.

(7) Prepare and transmit personnel and cargo electronic manifests and forward to GTN IAW Table 302-2, Timeliness Evaluation Criteria

(8) Provide and operate MHE to load and unload aircraft when it is within the units’ capability.

(9) Request SAAM support through the Service validator. Provide means to create electronic manifest.

(10) Prepare cargo and equipment using designated automatic identification technology enablers.

(11) Figure 303-2 summarizes unit movement responsibilities. Specific responsibilities of participating organizations and agencies are discussed in detail in this chapter and Appendices. “

You should NOT confuse the “Deploying Unit” with the “Mobility Force” (TALCE, A/DACG, Aerial Port/Small Air Terminal, or DCC/CDF units).  Deploying Units are responsible to Load Plan their chalks.  Mobility Forces are responsible to Inspect cargo and validate Load Plans.  Each ANG unit requires a qualified Load Planner.

Try to fill up the classroom as much as possible.  Reach out to other service units in your area (e.g. HRF Elements, CERFP Elements, FSRTs, DRMKTs, C2-CREs, ARNG Aviation, etc.)
