| | English translation:airborne transloading platoon | Explanation:
In the military context, a Zug is (often) a platoon. 'Umschlag' is transloading, and 'airborne'is an educated guess.
sample refs:
Für die Piloten der Transall ist die Arbeit nun getan, für andere fängt sie erst jetzt richtig an. Stabsfeldwebel Martin H. und seine neun Soldaten des Fallschirmgeräte- und Luftumschlagzuges des Luftlandeunterstützungsbataillons 262 machen ihre Arbeit schnell und professionell, denn die nächste Maschine ist schon im Landeanflug.
