Love these old training / propaganda films. Small window's into the nation during the war.

This makes me like pallets even more. That is a lot of manpower by today standards.

I spent my career stowing, moving , and shoring V hulled freighters. I also operated in the more modern times with ordnance OP-4 foe sea and OP-5 shore. Good times. Watch the Port Chicago mishap as some are propaganda and some tell of a messed up situation. Like OP-1014, it is written in blood regarding lax safety.

There is a reason why Adm Waeashe has a Coast Guard vessel named after him today!

Handling and stowage procedures have definitely changed for the better! I.Y.A.O.Y.A.S!

“…did you just- did you just recite a random thing you copy and pasted?” **She asked, sounding baffled and a bit confused at the sudden statement you made**

"Stowage"? Oh wait, it's not a lisp
