Essentially a Flughafenbetriebeskompanie is the ground echelon that keeps the airmen flying. At least some of these were attached to particular flying units and I'm sure someone here can say whether others were static at a given place or assigned to different units/airfields as needed.

Any anti-partisan work could have been a matter of turning out everyone who could carry a rifle either ot fend off an attack or to sweep the area surrounding a base (that certainly happened in Italy).
