This report analyzes the loading for ocean transport of a 1930 U.S. Army Mechanized Division and a 1986 U.S. Army Mechanized Division with 30-days of supplies aboard containerships of the U.S. flag fleet using standard 20' and 40' containers in combination with large open top containers known as SEA SHEDs. The report quantifies the potential for increased utilization of containerships to carry large military vehicles and outside breakbulk cargo. The SEA SHED enables containerships to be quickly converted from commercial to military cargo rapid deployment applications.
