• Deployment Plan

MPF 09

Marshaling

• Process by which– Units organize– Complete final preparations for deployment

• Preparation of personnel and equipment• Originates at the Units Home Base/Station• Staging• Loading• Transportation to embarkation points

MPF 09

Movement

• Transportation of forces by

different modes to the AAA

• Flow sequenced to facilitate

and support– Efficient offload of MPS

– Achievement of operational

– capability of the MAGTF

MPF 09

Deployment Plan

• Documentation that gives

– Direction to subordinate units

– Inform higher and adjacent commands of the sequence and priorities of the commander

MPF 09

Deployment Operations

MPF 09

Marshaling

• Deploying unit responsible for marshaling the deploying personnel and equipment at the unit’s home station

• Organic transportation should be used to the maximum extent possible.

MPF 09

SOPs

• Many MPF operational aspects are expedited by the use of SOPs.

Marshaling

• Parent command will provide the equipment and supplies for movement to the APOE

• Units/detachment OIC will report completion of marshaling activities and readiness to move to the MMCC.

MPF 09

Movement

• Movement to the APOE/SPOE will be accordance with the MAGTF deployment LOI

• All movement will be coordinated and approved through the MDDOC and MMCC

MPF 09

Movement

Movement Control Organizations

• Established by the MAGTF commander to:– Control marshaling– Movement– Staging– Other administrative and logistic support

functions

MPF 09

• Tailored to meet specific requirements generated by the size and scope of the deployment

• Deploying MAGTF will require assistance from MARFOR and Navy type commander

Movement Control Organizations

MPF 09

• Coordinate with the MMCC all logistic support requirements for marshaling not within their organic capabilities

MPF 09

CNSE UMCC

• Established by the CNSE

• Report to the MAGTF commander for marshaling, movement and staging

• Establish an NSE UMCC to coordinate deployment activities for all Navy units

MPF 09

Airlift Liaison Element (ALE)

• Established by MAGTF Commander at each APOE– Provide for coordination with the Departure

Airfield Control Group (DACG)

– Includes personnel from the MAGTF and major subordinate elements (MSE)

MPF 09

ALE

• Task include– Assist with final prep of vehicles and equip– Ensure that required dunnage, shoring,

and tie-down material with unit loads– Provide load plans, personnel and cargo

manifests

MPF 09

ALE

• Tasks include– Assemble personnel, supplies and equip

into sequenced pre-planned aircraft loads– Ensure plane/troop commander appointed– Ensure aircraft loads arrive at the Joint

Inspection (JI) at time required– Ensures correction of all load

discrepancies found during JI

MPF 09

Departure Airfield Control Group (DACG)

• Established by the MLG/LCE at each APOE – Primary interface with the Contingency Response Element

(CRE)– Organized from non-deploying LCE elements

• Receives, inventories,

and inspects aircraft

loads as the arrive at

the APOE

MPF 09

DACG

• Provide emergency maintenance, POL and related services to accomplish loading

• Coordinate with CRE to ensure cargo and personnel are properly prepared and accepted for air movement

MPF 09

Contingency Response Element (CRE)

• Formerly known as the TALCE• Non-Fleet Control Organization• Established by USAF AMC

– Coordinates all operational aspects of AF airlift missions

• Aircraft movement control• Communications • Technical supervision of marshaling and

loading aircraft

En-route Movement Control Center

• Established by MEF commander to support the deploying MAGTF– Monitors air movement and informs the

FMCC of any delays with the FIE or Flight Ferry

– OIC can direct offload and reload of personnel and equip onto other aircraft

MPF 09

Self-Deploying Aircraft Control Center (SDACC)

• Established by Marine Aircraft Wing (MAW)– Coordinate movement of the Flight Ferry

– Movement control officer (MCO) will be designated and has OPCON of FF and Enroute Support Base (ESB) detachments during transoceanic operations

MPF 09

SDACC

• MCO tasks include– Plan and coordinate with all proposed ESB

– Consolidate MEF requirements and act as lead agent for publication of consolidated plan

– Coordinate and provide ground security personnel at the ESB

MPF 09

Embarkation Control Office (ECO)

• Organized from units tasked with loading the T-AVB– Established to coordinate the loading of the

T-AVB

– Located at the SPOE

MPF 09
