" with a ten foot container per each 4 man squad, loaded with everything from .22 hushpuppies to .50 calibers!"

Talk about something that can make a man feel inadequate! Jeez.

We had something like that, though ours was mobile.

Three beltfed machineguns, a 90mm cannon, a couple of .45 greaseguns and a salvaged Thompson, an M79 and AK, sometimes an M14 and shotgun as well, plus a .50 M2 for the boss, and a lot of the time, there were three of us instead of four. M1911A1 .45 pistols for all, plus my Browning GP and my driver's .38 sixgun, plus ammo, 10,000 rounds just for the .30 caliber MG, and around 50 for that 90mm- High Explosive, HEAT, Canister and WP, among other possibilities. Called an M48A3, it was.

Well, sometimes we were mobile....

I guess that would do it, too. The SEALS have nice "tool chests". Comparing the SEAL budget to the SF budget, I know some SF guys who say they just follow the SEALs around and gather what falls off them.

I guess a tank could have its advantages!

An advantage of the SEALs is that in the budget, they are being compared to aircraft carriers, nuke subs, F-18s etc.

"Only" a few 100 million for specwar sounds cheap!
