I believe I have seen the latter used in newspaper articles esp in reference to military units....
e.g. the Nth Division based out of Ft ***, State YYY. I don't know if that is correct or not
or if it's a regional thing....N. CA in this case.

That is rather military, but in use, yes - also in business. I think that the difference is that 'based out of' carries a greater suggestion that they will be deployed to other areas.

Yes, I agree with your last sentence...........I have seen ads for oil rig workers based out of Houston with the
suggestion that they will be deployed to other areas.
suggestion that they will be deployed to other areas.
