FHLL, your reference to the FENGLOAD on the Caribou is interesting. Some of my best friends were Loadmasters or CrewmanTech and they were an integral part of the operation. Loadmaster airborne and Technician on the ground, never a Flight Engineer. Don't know the reasoning behind their role ever being defined as a Flight Engineer. Many moved into the Flight Engineer role post Caribou of course and they were excellent FE's. (Maybe I had better brace for incoming)
