[Milsurplus] Stuff

[Rick Brashear]

Been there, done that, need to do it again!  Bring it on, Larry.  I was 
just out in my shed this afternoon thinking exactly what you asked, how 
much money do I have tied up in this stuff?  Not that it matters, I'd do 
it again in a heartbeat.  In fact, I am always doing it!  It makes for 
lots of fun to go back in a year or two and dig through the stuff.  With 
my memory, it's ALL new to me by then.

Good luck!
