WW2 Tech Transfer to Soviets - I wouldn't be terribly surprised to
find 1 or 2 tech manuals in that pile.....

"A total of 1,717,712 pounds of cargo containing aircraft parts, tools
miscellaneous equipment, explosives and medical supplies were shipped
through Great Falls Army Air Base to the Soviet Union.

This included one of the greatest technology transfers (and espionage
operations) in the history of the world. According to Richard Rhodes
the plans for the atomic bomb, hundreds of tons of nuclear weapons
materials, strategic intelligence reports, and the plans for much of
the most advanced aviation, electronic, and heavy industrial
technology was transferred through Gore Field and East Base in sealed
diplomatic containers."
