[quote="GordoSD"](quoted from post at 19:20:51 08/16/14) Years ago when I was the single test pilot for F4's at a rework facility I saw a couple of civilian workers loading up some barrels of oil.

As for the mil 23699-I know Castrol was one vender and I think Mobil and Amsoil were also bought.I also know we went through case upon case of oil.When I was still in the airforce on C130s we were still useing mil 7808 and didn't go through any where as much.
