"(b) The only break to be used during loading is the
hand brake. The parking brake -- required by
MIL-M-8090 -- is only to keep the empty trailer from
breaking loose, and should not be used when the
missile is aboard. A lot of force has to be put on
this brake to hold an empty trailer on a 17 degree
incline, so it would be virtually useless as a
physical restraint on missile and trailer."
