Jimmy Horn from Seattle told me this story. He was in Navy at San Francisco and was walking by a surplus store one day. In store window he saw an APX--6. He was surprised, to say the least, because it was still in use in Navy and in fact was still rated CONFIDENTIAL. I did not get a chance to ask what year. I find the APX-6 a wonderful looking beast but totally useless to my interests.
