That's been going on for at least 20 years. The US Navy has outsourced some of their submarine bases that long. One in particular that I visited was being almost entirely run (except for a Marine security force) by PANAM. Many of the US DoD oversees facilities, including those in forward areas such as Bosnia, have been run by large US corporation under contract. -- burns _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
