I'm somewhat disappointed to see... that both the Navy and the Marine Corps are reducing available funds.

Your responses are very reassuring and welcome. If there is anything that we can do to make possible full funding, I hope you'll let us know...

I appreciate the comments that both of you have made. I have no question about your determination to improve and upgrade this system.
