Which op term and graphic is used to manage the movement of personnel and cargo by land or air?

• A. Division/wing op term and graphic
• B. Medical op term and graphic
• C. Supply op term and graphic
• D. Motor transport op term and graphic

Answer: (D)

The movement of personnel and cargo by land or air is planned and controlled with the motor transport op term and graphic. In this system, “motor transport” refers to transportation operations that move people and material using ground vehicles and coordinating air movement as part of a combined mobility plan. The op term and graphic provide the standardized symbols, terms, and structure to designate routes, staging areas, embarkation and debarkation points, and timing, so units can synchronize movements from departure to arrival across both land and air avenues.

Other options relate to different functions: division/wing op term and graphic covers higher-echelon operational planning for a larger formation, medical focuses on evacuation and treatment, and supply concentrates on provisioning and distribution. None of these center on the coordinated movement task as directly as motor transport does.
