Which unit is responsible for preparing MPE for offload at AAA and coordinating offload priorities based on commander's guidance?

• A. MAGTF Movement Control Center (MMCC)
• B. Arrival Airfield Control Group (AACG)
• C. Off-Load Preparation Party (OPP)
• D. Navy Control Organization (NCO)

Answer: (C)

The Off-Load Preparation Party is the element that handles the setup and sequencing needed for unloading at the arrival airfield. Their responsibility is to get the necessary equipment and teams ready to offload from aircraft and to determine the offload order in line with the commander's guidance. This means they stage and prepare the equipment and personnel, verify readiness, and establish the priority sequence for what gets offloaded first. They coordinate with airfield operations to align timing and space on the ramp, and they work within the broader movement and airfield control framework to ensure the most time-sensitive or mission-critical cargo is handled first. The other units play important roles in movement coordination and airfield management, but the specific task of preparing the loading equipment and directing the offload priorities rests with the Off-Load Preparation Party.
