The mission of the 106th Transportation Battalion was to deploy and assist in the deployment of units worldwide, and provide continuous support to the XVIII Airborne Corps, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), Fort Campbell Installation Units and units throughout the full range of operations.

On 6 August 2009, the Department of the Army announced a series of planned unit activations, inactivations, and realignments at four installations. This included the planned inactivation of the 106th Transportation Battalion. In 2010, the 106th Transportation Battalion was inactivated. This is the last unit coin made.
