ADDED NOTE: From the OOOPPSS Department: Last week in OPDX.757, we stated
"The Mexican Navy sent back the ship's helipcopter and picked up Ramon,
YV5EED, one of the medical doctors with the operation and the body of
Jose, YV5LIX." This was incorrect. It was the Venezuelan Navy not the
Mexican Navy.
