15. our navy has massive logistics capabilities and the ships for it
but we have huge bases too. I wonder if the huge naval base in San Diego could be used as a temporary additional cargo port? The navy operates its own container ships. The navy's Shughart class cargo / logistics ships are 900 feet, 55k tons - pretty close to the size of a panamax size container ship.
Once again the DUmbasses prove just how stupid they are when it comes to anything these days. The Shughart class of cargo ships and container ships waiting to be offloaded have nothing in common with the way their respective cargos are handled. The Shughart is a Roll On, Roll Off (RO-RO) while a container ship uses huge cranes, of which there are none in San Diego IIRC, to load and unload containers.
