[Milsurplus] Curiousity...

How true.  Even projects I was on back in 1954 are still classified under 
the 50 year rule. Remember the ASA site at Siagon had a bunch of R390's 
back in 69 when I stopped in to see a friend on my way out of country.  As 
an example in 1954, I can account for at least  150 R-390's in the 6926th 
RSM alone.
