Hi, 1LT Rosa. Get this.
I came into a new office ("new" to me...the office space had been there for years) in '99. One of the old occupants that had moved on to other digs asked me what I thought of the mirror in the bathroom. That was an odd question, it's a mirror, so I went to check it out. The mirror was on hinges, and opened like a door. Behind the mirror was an extensive collection of Playboy magazines. When I pointed it out to my supervisor, who was equally surprised, I was ordered to toss them all immediately.

A busted dino fill device is the best I can remember right now. Who would put a floppy drive on the PB knowing it could only be used on stand-alones? Someone should simply "dispose of it".

MX-18290/VRC Fill Device, ELEK CCM
FM 11-1 says that the MX-18290 can be used to load the Transmission Security Key (TSK) keys but not the Transmission Encryption Keys (TEK) implying they are different in protocol and/or format. Since they are different then the MX-18290 can not load the KYV-2()Secure Voice Module. FM 11-1 also says the MX-10579 can only load FH data into the RT-1439 and ARC-201, not the RT-1523 series nor the ARC-201A. Why would that be?

I remember those. They were still in use when I first came in. We used them on our LRS Teams.

CPT (Join to see) - They're more durable than the SKL and ANCD. I knew many SpecOps 25s that preferred them. An SKL without a stylus or an ANCD without a CIK = Hell.

I've found Floppy disk drives, PATA Hard drives, cassettes, and actual floppy disks.

I read that US Missile command still uses floppy drives in their ICBMs. Maybe it belongs to them
