Impossible to pump it dry because it is a split reservoir too - but if
you blow the front system and the rear is out of adjustment (extremely
common - auto adjusters stuck and rear brakes not serviced - or
handbrake never used - required to operate the adjusters) and there is
not enough volume pumped from the bottomed rear piston to fully apply
the rear brakes. If you don't "brain freeze" and get a second pump in,
you have a chance to slow down, if not totally stop
All the drum brakes I'm familiar with are adjusted by hitting the brakes
while traveling in reverse. Each event indexes the star adjuster by one
notch. Parking brakes, as used with drums, merely mechanically apply
force to a lever on the drum mechanism, no effect on the adjuster.

Parking brakes very often are the method of adjusting parking brakes,
drum or disk. Many of the hand operated parking brakes on GM vehicles
adjusted the drum brakes this way. And many of those had no star/screw
type adjuster, they had a one way friction plate that only adjusted out.
Correct. althogh MOST north anerican built GM cars DID have the
star-wheel
