I lost my post count. It went from 100 or 101 down to 95 or 96 What gives?
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Uncle does such things to pay for "black" projects. If you remember in the past, most of the $600 toilet seats, screwdrivers, etc. were bought through Lockheed. This was to pay for the F-117 stealth program. The Gubmint has to show that they paid the right amount of money to Lockheed, but not show what they paid for. The 'baddies' can tell a lot about a program by how much you spend on it.Does this also explain why my Uncle Samuel occasionally pays about $20,000 for a HAMMER that you or I could pick up for about $10 at Home Depot?
Jus' wunnerin' - Is sum-buddy cookin' the books?
