    Easyest to find on base if you still have base privleges. All the PX's seem to have that stuff.

    Other than that, Army /Navy military surplus Stores

    I'll try and find the web sites to order from 4 U. I have some written down someplace in my junk pile on my desk here.

    I'll e-mail them when I find them.

    My Dad was there too . He had one of the most dangerous jobs one could have . He drove a beer truck. Seriously he drove a supply truck and said he hauled mostly beer. Snipers were a big problem. He told me of a few of his stories where he had to pull over and shoot it out with snipers .

    So when some one ask me what your dad do in the army. I uh well he drove a beer truck.[:D]

    PS. Thanks for this post. You have given me a something I can get him for Christmas he would not expect.[:)]
