you are posting drivel again
Depending on what those stores are ABIW, if CDS then fine you can drop them, but what if vehicles or guns are involved? I am pretty sure there isn't a clearance in place to drop something similar to the MSP from a J (and I know it isn't the MSP but can't remember the name - type 5?)
