I would have to believe so, just one piece of the puzzle, I was always curious as to what happens from raw material, to final process, testing or proving as in what they did where you spent a career. I know in the past a lot of people had good jobs because of all of this, the Watervliet Arsenal provided that around here. The neighbor across the road at our other place is a long time and very accomplished employee there, he's been called in to the Rock Island Arsenal as well. Not sure about Picatinny.
