Question on AWC fluid

It might be a stupid question for you guys.
Is AWC fluid the same thing as Transfer Case Fluid?
The AWC fluid is the one in the bottle located at the right hand side of the trunk above the pump. Transfer Case Fluid seems to be refer to the fluid in the rear diff.
I knoe the dealer would change the Transfer Case Fluid regularly.
If AWC fluid is not the same thing, how often should I change it?

I guess transfer case fluid is in the bottle under the hood and behind the coolant bottle. So, how often do you change the AWC fluid? How you change it?

Different Fluids..... the AWC is ATF III the Transfer case fluid is..... all over my driveway because the seals went for my AWC in the front transfer case allowing the fluid to mix and eventually caused the failure of my front transfer case as I added more ATF fluid because it kept disappearing (into the transfer case as it turned out) . All due to a rear end accident that created severe lateral loads onto the front drivers side wheel not expected in the transfer case.

I think the only fluids you need to worry about changing is the tranny fluid, Front diff/transfer case fluid and also the rear diff fluid. You dont really need to service the AWC fluid hardly ever i believe.
