Soldiers with the 7th Transportation Group's 331st Tansportation Company, the Army's only floating causeway company, move equipment from the USNS Pililaau, anchored off the coast of Camp Pendleton, Calif., to the Navy Elevated Causeway System on pieces of the Improved Navy Lighterage System, July 26, during Joint Logistics Over The Shore 2008. JLOTS is an exercise that increases the Army's and Navy's ability to build improvised ports for transporting equipment from ship to shore when a harbor or pier has been damaged or is nonexistent. Nearly 1,500 pieces of rolling equipment and shipping containers will be moved from ships with a series of lighterage systems (floating roadways) and smaller boats to improvised piers on the shore.
