• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Of Government Stores and General Cargo

Had a look-see around: Government Stores = GSA Catalog [i.e. Sears & Roebuck. Monkey Wards or J.C. Penny's] wound be the answer. Anything that it takes to run the day-to-day operation of an organization.

General Cargo = Lumber, Cement, Asphalt, Hardware items in bulk, Steel, (DOD) Cargo that is susceptible for loading in general, non-specialized stowage areas or standard shipping containers; e.g., boxes, barrels, bales, crates, packages, bundles, and pallets.
So anything that does not require special handling or packaging.


That's the best I could come up with, hope this helps ya.

Thank you, Skipsan :salute:

I'm busy reading a book on shipwrecks. Government stores and general cargo is mentioned quite a bit in reference to some of the ships that have sunk and their cargo.
