Any suggestions? Thanks Ciao Wed, 12 Mar 2008 12:53:49 +0000 http://www.lightstalkers.org/posts/body-armor-dilemma Kash, some members of LS who would know about your dilemma may not be able to see your posting since now there is a filter that dictates which&nbsp; posts one can see when logged on (basically all posts from the list of contacts and the contacts of one's contacts).&nbsp; I would suggest you PM (send a private message) to Teru Kuwayama who is very familiar with Afghanistan and to Zalmai who is also familiar and is originally from there.&nbsp; They can give you detailed info.<br&#47;> Tue, 28 Jun 2005 09:06:58 +0000 http://www.lightstalkers.org/posts/body-armor-dilemma#4732 Thanks Jon, will do it.
