Is there a Squid utility command to force a cache load from a local hard drive?

             xww.example.com
               /w /x /y /z
                 Apache
        ------------------------
        Slow Internet Connection
        ------------------------
         lan1  |  lan2  |  lan3
               |        |
         cache |  cache |  cache
         /x /y |  /x /z |  /y /z
         Squid |  Squid |  Squid
        ------ | ------ | ------
        Browser| Browser|Browser
        Browser| Browser|Browser
        Browser| Browser|Browser
        Browser| Browser|Browser

For example, plug a USB hard drive into the machine on lan1 that is
running Squid.
Then invoke a command like:

$ suqid-util\
  --force-cache-load\
  --url-root http://www.example.com/x\
  --local-root /mnt/usb1\
  --recursive

This would be useful when a 2TB hard drive can be hand carried to a
location with
slow Internet connection.
