Interesting ongoing story about a body armor manufacturer supplying police deparments AND the U.S. military. This company has a lot of manufacturing operations in Florida. Ceradyne is another company supplying body armor items to the U.S. military FWIW.

Looking at Yahoo's finance boards, this looks one one of those stocks that is being played with rather than being used as investment. I'm unsure what plans the company has for increasing earnings, but the earnings level doesn't look all that bad to begin with.
