NOTATIONS:

-USTRANSCOM REPORTS THAT, ON ANY GIVEN DAY, IT MIGHT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR HANDLING THE MOVEMENT OF 100 RAILCAR SHIPMENTS, LOADING 44 SHIPS, AND OFFLOADING OR MONITORING 1,000 TRUCK SHIPMENTS.

-USTRANSCOM IS A JOINT SERVICES COMMAND WITH THE FOLLOWING PERSONNEL BREAKDOWN: 593 CONTRACTORS; 449 CIVILIAN EMPLOYEES; 303 AIR FORCE PERSONNEL; 208 ARMY, 166 NAVY AND 19 MARINES.

-A key component of consolidation is moving the U.S. Army Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC) from Fort Eustis, Va. to Scott AFB. Already, more than 500 of those workers from Virginia, both civilian and military have been transferred to Scott, and they are already working out of a temporary modular structure, affectionately dubbed "Big Red." Other tenant partners in the new building will be planning functions of the Air Force Tanker Airlift Control Center, the U.S. Navy's Military Sealift Command (MSC), and the USTRANSCOM Deployment Distribution Operations Center, and other units in the Defense Transportation System yet to be announced.
