	This brings up a subject that I've been thinking about lately, and maybe
you guys have some suggestions. Are there any decent magazines that keep up
with ME type stuff, like Special Forces, SWAT and the like? I know that
Jane's is an obvious first choice, but I don't have the kind of cash to keep
up one of those subscription. Which, I guess, makes my question, does anyone
have a cheaper alternative to Jane's?
