When palletized military logistics became recognizable

When did pallets and forklifts enter military logistics?

Precursors appeared by the First World War, while recognizable pallet-and-forklift logistics spread in the 1950s and 1960s.

Early versions of palletization are placed as far back as the First World War. Those arrangements are distinguished from palletization as it would now be understood. The combination of pallets and forklifts is dated more broadly to the 1950s and 1960s. These are approximate periods in a brief answer, without a precise first military adoption date.
