 | | The 1st TMCA's two MC battalions are the 14th Transportation Battalion (MC), which monitors transportation in Italy, and the 39th Transportation Battalion (MC), which oversees transportation in Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and Germany (except the northern part of Bavaria and Hessen, which are the 27th's responsibility). |
 | | The TMR number is an alphanumeric code that denotes the mode of transportation and provides instructions for the freight movement. |
 | | If military transportation is not used, the MCT then determines the appropriate commercial mode (rail, truck, or barge) based on required delivery date, cargo, destination, and cost. |
