Speaking of Team Spirit, I was the Embarkation clerk for the Squadron. We would bring huge crates (8'x4'x4') full of consumables- toilet paper, office supplies, whatever. After they were empty, I would charge to ship stuff back to Okinawa.

Well how else were you to get the shipping containers back...lol
Too bad place like China and other place find it cheaper to make new truck trailer shipping containers than ship back their empties from the States.
I think the next time any State Capital, or better yet, when they some new building in Washington, DC, they should be fiscal responsible and make their State Representative, Congressperson, Senators, Governor, President or whatever they may be called and used these cargo containers...lol Since many people have taken to use them as the basis for their home, just modifying the inside and cutting out holes for windows and other things...
Just some thoughts.
