Is there a way to install docker command-line completion in a Docker for AWS CE deployment?

I've deployed the CloudFormation Docker for AWS CE stack, as per the instructions.

So far, though, I haven't been able install Docker command-line completion on any node. Granted the OS in these is a special (apparently somewhat minified) OS, but it DOES have /bin/bash on it, so there should be a way to get autocomplete running, right?

Since this is still true for 2021 on aws-linux2, giving you have installed the package bash-completion, here's my way to do it (despite the fact that the docker-completion should be in the docker-cli package, but doesn't work for me either):

sudo curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/docker/docker-ce/master/components/cli/contrib/completion/bash/docker -o /etc/bash_completion.d/docker.sh
sudo chmod +x /etc/bash_completion.d/docker.sh

logout and login again (or just enter a new bash)
