My primary duty was to ship by plane,and ship of all of the household goods of all the military personnel who already shipped out . Also all of the bulk items,i.e. trucks,cars generators ect.they gave me 45 days to complete the mission and I was able to do it in 30 days. My captain treated me a weekend of bullfights, sightseeing, and dinner. It was great!!
