Okay....that sounds good. Don't want to put any strain or anything on Ramius if he isn't feeling well.

My earlier prognosis on Gerber might have to be upgraded several notches. After a slow start, emails were exchanged, and I talked to a manager there today.

It seems Gerber has its own low-profile, company-supported, troop support program. He visited our site, and decided we were the real thing, and was impressed with our efforts.

I don't have any numbers yet, but it appears we can have access to their entire product line. I can see a definite use for the LMF II, multi-tools, and the Ranger four-color LED flashlight.

I also learned a bit about the light that's not in the packaging. The blue "fluids" light is actually a "blood light". It was put there at the request of Navy SEALS because blue light shows the difference between mud and blood at night.

Also, the second-generation light will have a NVG-friendly color filter, too.

Please continue your prayers for our troop-support project. It looks like we're going to take another giant step in our ability to help our troops.
