Which statement about postings is true?

Which statement about postings is true?

• A. LOG: any AF or defence base; PCO: any AF base.
• B. LOG: only overseas bases; PCO: only training bases.
• C. LOG: naval bases; PCO: air bases.
• D. LOG and PCO both refer to civilian bases.

Answer: (A)

Postings describe where an officer will serve for a period and reflect how the role fits into Defence structure. For logistics roles, the need to move supplies, equipment, and support across all services means these postings can be located at any base under Defence—Air Force, Navy, or Army—and at Defence-wide bases as required. In contrast, a PCO role is tied to Air Force operations and base-level functions, so postings are located at Air Force bases. Because of this, logistics postings are open across any AF or Defence base, while PCO postings are at Air Force bases. The other options wrongly limit where these postings can occur or imply bases that aren’t relevant to the typical Defence posting system.
