My brother says it's longer shoe in the rear. Where is everybody?

I took the rear drums off my '70 today and noticed that the longer (primary) brake shoes were in the back on both sides and the shorter (secondary) shoes were in front. Isn't it supposed to be the other way around? I thought my memory might just be playing tricks on me, but I just got home and checked the service manual, which also says that the adjuster lever goes on the secondary shoe, which also indicates that the smaller shoe belongs in the back. Thanks, John Nasta
