  <body>Hi 
I'm heading from my base in Beirut to the States to do an interview in Missouri.
But then I'm heading straight to Dubai and on to Kabul.
So I'll have to have my flak jacket with me as I go through the States. 
Has anybody had problems arriving at US customs from the ME with a flak jacket?
Cheers
