haha sorry, i may have gotten the Lg grays. The original request came from Restrepo. And when i asked a guy on Vegas to confirm it's a good send he said something like "heck ya, we all have been talking about wanting one". Soooo, my guess is any contact out there would like one. Vegas soldier said Lg is good but also that there ...

Thanks for posting Joanne!
