It is a company contracted with the DOD to ship cars from port to port.
The base here is not bad but it is in the middle of nowhere. Instead of driving 5 minutes to 15 minutes to the next village to get things you want, I now drive 1 and a half hours.
Still not bad but my job has changed from instructor to expeditor. Basically I am in charge of explosive loading operations on the Flightline and weapons maintenance on the aircraft. It can be really stressfull.

BTW, interesting change of duties there, does that include cargo munitions as well on cargo a/c ?
Last week, I had a B767 "Reach" c/s - so US military, but civil insignia/logo - later found out it was full of munitions for Israel - created later on some interesting diplomatic itricacies to be ironed out....you guys never did that before..

I just load them on the aircraft to later be dropped on targets. I do not handle any type of munitions transport. That is a good thing. Who knows with Israel, but we are supporters of Israel.
