NICKNAME OPERATIONS Scores of practice loads are prepared by the 314th TS each week. The pallets are loaded into the cargo area of C-130 aircraft with the assistance of load-bearing rollers on the cargo deck floor. On September 12, the 2nd MAPS and the 314th Aerial Port Squadron were inactivated. The unit's personnel and equipment were absorbed into the 314th Transportation Squadron, who had taken over the old 2nd MAPS building near the flight line. The unsung heroes in the 314th Transportation Squadron, the business end of the base's flight operations, prepare the C-130's loads for delivery. Without the often overlooked efforts of these hard working airmen, the C-130 could not perform its primary mission.
