I understand that, I understand that. I am just saying that what I most fear about is, in Kosovo shots can be taken and that has not happened in Bosnia-Herzegovina. The gentleman's point is well taken. Let me also compliment the gentleman who is the chairman of the Subcommittee on Military Procurement, and I think the gentleman from Missouri (Mr. Skelton) understands this. What we are trying to achieve here is for the President, if he wants to use moneys for the peacekeeping operation, then come with the supplemental appropriation, do not take it out of hide. A lot of the things for which we are doing here is to fund the national military strategy; that is our goal, and I also would want to work with the gentleman.
