Drum brake problem

UPDATE: Here's what I found out about the rear drum setup on my car. Apparantly the noise I'm hearing is the shoes not making 100% contact with the drum. I spoke to one of our fleet mechanics and he said that the best way to get the drums/shoes to mate exactly is to have the shoes arced. He stated that the fleet shop used to do them years ago but stopped due to asbestoes dust. Looking up the process on web showed that not a lot of shops do this anymore. Since everything else seems to be working except for the noise I'm just going to leave it alone. Thanks for all the suggestions.
