I'm always so jealous of ebay.de - the rare stuff always seems to show up there. I've never seen a UGR case available here. Just saw this
Yellow HDR for sale on the German ebay. 6 of them! Of course none of the good stuff ever has US shipping options
If someone else from the states does search on ebay.de, be sure to sort by a method that includes shipping. It will remove results that don't allow any shipping to the US and there are still quite a few things on there worth thinking about.

If do you see something you want again, let me know. I would be happy to give you hand to get it over to the US

If you see another UGR of any designation please don't hesitate to let me know.
Not worried about the shipping if I can get one at your price!
Thanks

It could also be because the training exercises done overseas are more "exotic" when working with NATO and UN partners, and you find items that aren't used often here in the states. Most of the exercises done here in the US are usually catered by contractors (nearly all bases have a contract that requires their use) or with plain old MREs or (more rarely) TOTMs, with smaller exercises where pulling in a caterer wouldn't be as economical.
I'm using my computer's spare resources to help find cures for diseases, analyze astronomical data, render 3D animations, simulate new materials and run climate models--what is your computer doing?
