Mele Kalikimaka, yip-a-howlie. Thanks for the update on our NDAA 2017 section being strengthened in more direct wording. You and Henry Livingston keeping an eye on this, annnd, Hell, I`ll go along with you guys.

And if this is stronger wording and appeases the industry lobbies, I guess we're stuck with it. IMHO, the language is stripping the DLAs TRUSTED MFGR and TRUSTED SUPPLIER oversight certifications out of the supply chains.

Industry groups goin to increase their self-policing efforts. I'm equating it to the Cotton Better Initiative (CBI) trade group Houtheman`s been sweet talking with. And the National Defense Industries Association own iniative introduced last Labor Day time frame.

Acounts Receivable report from cotton keeping my glass half full at the moment.

A couple of weeks ago I found this May 2016 article on what John McCain got in the yet to be signed 2017 NDAA And Kendall's office is getting closed.

DLA was ready with us when the 2012 Kendall memorandum pretty much sparked our suddenly prominent role. We were losing Frank no matter what. A politically appointed roll to begin with. My interpretation of McCain's shuffling returns supply chain management to anything the separate services want to slap together.

Been ad hoc honestly.

Putting up the lights on my little slice of heaven here in Florida YIP. Don't know the polynesian phrase for you howlie hebrew hawaiian heroes, but blessings to you and yours.

We got some verticals to track here. Just mho.

Still processing the language of our section of the 2017 NDAA you provided here yip. Didn't jump from the peak of my roof or hang myself with the Christmas lights I was splicing together and stringing along.

Guess I'll get through it. DoD did get us this far and we're still in the game there. A lot of small shops may be able to still crack into the supply chain if we're formally approved as an approved method.

Here's a mult-billion $ b branch of Boeing that could be using a savvy little job shop with 3D printers and design level programmers undaunted by complex designs

Link to Boeing logistics. Dunno, the big three in aero defense Boeing, Grumman and Lockheed use terms like payload thickening with the advance of 3D printing. Instead of outsourcing to specialty firms. Raytheon (shoulda listed them too) taking on the whole of MDA mfg of interceptor missiles. And evidently they use us.

Any thoughts you got on this Captian, love to here em. Got some trees I can still string myself up to. But I'd prefer just to put up some lights.
