R. Miksits,

Without making any commitment, let's just say that discussions have occurred that would put Larry back in Texas in the Fall 09. We'll have to see what happens...

Wayne - will you please put me on the wait list.

Also, when I trained with Paul Howe last year he said Larry is welcome to use his range for a class. If there are folks interested then perhaps we can get LAV over to Nacogdoches for a few days. Paul has a fantastic facility with multiple ranges, a bunk house, classroom, weapons cleaning shed, etc. What do you think?

Wayne -- If Larry does another carbine class in the fall, either at APG or CSAT, I'm interested.
