Unit Line Numbers

• Tasked unit line numbers are classified according to combatant command OPLAN's security classification instructions.
• A unit line number is considered "executed" once the validation block is date stamped by the combatant command.

Deployment Data Management

• The DCAPES User's Manual details importing and exporting of deployment data files, facilitating deployment operations.
• Create DCAPES or LOGMOD files only after the combatant command executes the unit line number.

Event Scheduling and IDP

• Installations must create an event schedule through IDRC or DCC for deploying units to complete all required actions prior to departure.
• The Installation Deployment Plan (IDP) outlines processes for developing and distributing deployment schedules for personnel and cargo.

DCC and Deployment Oversight

• The IDO determines workcenter assignment and scheduling methodologies for deployment events.
• When activated, the DCC publishes a LOGMOD Deployment Schedule of Events, tailored to installation-specific requirements.

Deployment Forms

Variability of Deployment Procedures

• Deployment processes depend on the type and scale of operations, requiring adaptation accordingly.

Infrastructure Requirements

• All deployment workcenters must be equipped with T-1 local area networks and wide area network connections.

Roles within Deployment Operations

• The IDRC serves as the main point for managing deployment when DCC is inactive.
• Aerial Port Squadrons at Air Mobility Command bases provide air transportation representations.

Personnel Deployment Functions

• Personnel may process using full or partial lines, ensuring readiness before deployment.
• Personnel tasked for combat zones should deploy as part of teams of three or more.

Contractor Travel Regulations

• Government contractors can travel via military air if a Letter of Authorization is provided.

UDM Responsibilities

• Upon tasking notification, the UDM identifies members, validates eligibility, and reviews deployment documents within specified timeframes.
• A final review of personnel readiness must occur between 30 and 10 days before out-processing.

Document Management

• Do not upload DD Form 1833 to e-AFDF or hand-carry it during deployment.
• AF Form 623A and AF Form 1098 are required for military personnel, E-6 and below.

Airlift Procedures

• Personnel deploying by airlift must assemble at least 3 hours before aircraft departure for manifesting and anti-hijack processing.

• Air Force Reserve and Air National Guard personnel must report to home stations before deploying from the nearest airport.

Post-Departure Requirements

• APT must upload passenger manifests into CMOS or GATES within 1 hour after departure.
• It is essential for deploying personnel to complete individual preparations and upload documents to e-AFDF at least five duty days before processing.
