Greetings to the list.
I am meeting with the convention coordinator again Friday for the final time
before the convention.  I have still only had a couple of replies on the
list of who is attending. So please if you are planning to assist with the
Demo, I need to have reasonably accurate numbers to report to her on Friday.
Erik how is the discussion on the light weapons going? If it is going to
happen I need to know NLT the 15th so I have time to let people know about
the change.

Yours in Service
Ld Eric Bentbow
