In the late 80s I was posted to Mobile Command Headquarters and to the Logistics branch offices wing of the second floor. One of my duties included amending publications. I remember seeing a manual for ship loading, and still recall that the diagrams were Liberty Ships. Containers, RO-RO ships, and other forms of highly mechanized transportation had not yet found their way into the back annexes of those manuals. Or, if they had, I didn't see those parts.
