If you are talking about your double-sent item. Yes it was recd. Email has been sent off with promised response this week from them.

I'm not sure?? I asked about the body armour as well as if there was a NSN on black paracord.
Sorry haven't heard from you and thought you were screening your calls (so to speak).

black paracord.

Hey!! I forgot about this one!! But it's still in there amongst the millions...I don't think there is but will confirm tomorrow. Don't feel bad. I just responded last week to a Tess query from like November I think it was!! Ask me easy ones I don't have to look up!! All my SMEs are in bed sleeping right now!!

I figured you being the boss you'd be playing mah-jongg all day. ;D

The reason for the body armour question is that if you can confirm for me I plan on writing the gov't to see what can be done to change it.  Thanks again.

        follow up on my broken gv snowshoes

after a few emails gv came good and posted me all the bits i needed to repair/upgrade my plastic snowshoes from weak alloy rivets to stainless bolts  eric e ;D

  it may be a spec issue to get plastic crampons instead of metal, but would anyone think plastic crampons would support a 200lb soldier on sloped ice? :-\ :-\

do the GV snowshoes made for the canadian army look anything like these ones
