Does the FAA advise DoD of these violations?

I wonder if DoD was advised of or had independent knowledge of the carrier's loading practices. If so, what did DoD or the US Army do about it?

I say this because back in my MAC C-141 days, our flight crew had to watch our straight-leg customers like a hawk when loading the airplane, even to the point or re-weighing pallets and such. Thank goodness we did, too.

In the haste that such loading and departures might be subject to (I don't know, wasn't there) its not hard to imagine some corners being cut or details overlooked.
No excuse, just saying.
