The Army returns to the Port of Olympia today for its third visit of the year.

Today's scheduled loading of the Cape Orlando military transport ship will be smaller than loadings and unloadings of ships in May and June that carried equipment to and from the war in Iraq.

Judi Warren, spokeswoman for the 833rd U.S. Army transportation battalion in Seattle, said dockworkers would load 120 containers onto the Cape Orlando today. The cargo is bound for "southwest Asia," Warren said.

The loading of Fort Lewis equipment will include a few Stryker combat vehicles, she said. The Army expects that loading will be completed today.
