Defense Courier Support Services   3

Background
USTRANSCOM Defense Courier Division (DCD) requires air transportation via commercial scheduled service routes to augment its global transportation network. DCD couriers must maintain constant positive control of all material during loading, transport, and unloading. Two DCD couriers will accompany their material during all movements between staging areas and the aircraft and board the aircraft after their material has been loaded and aircraft doors sealed.
DCD may also employ a team of recovery couriers at the arrival location to assist the traveling couriers with maintaining positive control during loading and unloading. DCD couriers will conduct planeside inventories to ensure all material is accounted for prior to departure.
