    (206) Once an Airman arrives at a base, he or she is required to report to the

    • Financial services office (FSO).

    • Military personnel section (MPS).

    • Medical treatment facility (MTF).

    • Unit deployment manager (UDM).

    Correct Answer
    A. Military personnel section (MPS).

They handle tasks such as personnel actions, promotions, awards, and evaluations. Reporting to the MPS ensures that the Airman's arrival is properly documented and that they are integrated into the base's personnel system. The financial services office (FSO) handles financial matters, the medical treatment facility (MTF) provides healthcare services, and the unit deployment manager (UDM) is responsible for coordinating deployments.
