I would have to believe so, just one piece of the puzzle, I was always curious as to what happens from raw material, to final process, testing or proving as in what they did where you spent a career. I know in the past a lot of people had good jobs because of all of this, the Watervliet Arsenal provided that around here. The neighbor across the road at our other place is a long time and very accomplished employee there, he's been called in to the Rock Island Arsenal as well. Not sure about Picatinny. I have seen an old photo of a large gun barrel on a flat car, coming through the nearby city, right before it crossed the then rail only bridge, across the hudson. It was headed to Watervliet for machining.
