Aren't the Globemaster IIIs built by Boeing?

Only because Boeing bought McDonnell Douglas.   Same with the F-15 and F-18.

Thanks.  I figured that was probably going to be the answer, but I thought that the MD acquisition happened before the C-17s really started to roll out and that most if not all were actually built by Boeing.  Thanks again.
