Gentlemen:  Let me encourage those of you who are interested in military-budget-related items to view my recent posts on sequestration and its effects both on the Navy and USAF; what you will read are comments from folks in the Air Force Assocation and the U.S. Naval Institute.  You can find my posts on my page or on the main page of Navy Dads.

Paul, Please don't make me wish I hadn't apologised.  Do you really want a discussion of this type on here?

lot of peanuts add up to a bumper crop......

Russell if you take the time to look at the federal budget, food stamps, welfare, unemployment, etc. are peanuts.  The big ticket items are social security, medicare, and the military --But you are absolutely correct that this discussion has no winners and no place here.  I apologize for bringing it up.

Guys, When we gave our SEALs their knives I shipped them to myself at our hotel and they held them there for me til we arrived at Coronado the next day. I didn't want to risk them being confiscated in the airport (and having no gift to give our sons)! By the way -- see the selection at www.fehrmanknives.com, (740) 685-2637. We gave both our sons the Short Stop and Last Chance -- they (and the rest of the guys on their Team) LOVE them!  HooYah, Jerry M

That's a discussion that will have no winners. I would take the unpopular view that the military should get what it needs, and cut back on the food stamps, welfare,  unemployment, politicians golden parachutes, etc. Way too much abuse of those entitlements.

Not to get political here but too many of us have no problem paying country club dues but balk at the privilege of paying dues, or taxes, to live as citizens of the greatest country in recorded history.  This all has an effect on the military budget...and ultimately on things like food and clothing allotments.

We've flown with a variety (hunting, diving) of knives in our checked bags - never had a problem. We make sure they're in the middle of the bag - don't want to make it too easy for the baggage handlers to find. UPS/FedEx works if anyone's nervous.  We've also used the USPS flat rate boxes.
