One hundred thirty-five members of the Kentucky Air National Guard’s 123rd Contingency Response Group and the U.S. Army’s 689th Rapid Port Opening Element from Fort Eustis, Va., deployed to MidAmerica St. Louis Airport here Aug. 5 and 6, 2013, to set up a logistics hub as part of Exercise Gateway Relief, an earthquake-response scenario directed by the United States Transportation Command. The two units will work together through Aug. 9 to stand up and operate a Joint Task Force-Port Opening, which combines an Air Force Aerial Port of Debarkation with an Army trucking and distribution unit. The aerial port ensures the smooth flow of cargo and relief supplies into affected areas by airlift, while the trucking unit facilitates their final distribution over land.
