While I was browsing the bibliography in that article, one item caught my eye ("Shipping in Naval Logistics"). I did a search for it and ran across another site:

www.fold3.com

There are a number of US Navy historical documents on this site--including "Shipping in Naval Logistics".

Warning: To download, you must have a membership, but they have a free (with CC#) 7 day trial membership. If you don't want to be charged, remember to cancel before 7 days are up!

Missing:

The flags are:

On the left:

Manchukuo
Mengkiang
Mongolian League
East Hebei Autonomous Council
Beijing puppet state

On the right:

Thailand
Philippines
Indonesia
Burma
Shanghai puppet state

I didn't include any others to keep things symmetric and to keep it looking too junky. The flag information I got from Flags of the World.

BTW, I like your signature quote very much!

That's the same Mark Parillo that was my older brother's major professor/good friend and his wife's first boss at the Institute for Military History. He's part of the reason they met. Very cool!
