and don't neglect to recall that there is an MSS-E and MSS-D now.

Sorry that was last years application message. I'll have to ask my RM/TC/OS friends to keep a better eye on me. Losing track of all the changes.

I talked to the GM RFM awhile back and GM's can no longer be an MSS. I think BM's got kicked off that bus too. Just AST's and MST's for MSS-D now.

Pat, the second thing to go is the memory!
