#2  Heard of a guy that have a similar find. Mexican guy, who bid on hauling away shipping and storage from Kelly AFB in San Antonio. He'd leave his trailers there, and they'd call when there was a load and the paperwork was ready. Took one load tp Nuevo Leon, and in unloading found two very heavy containers. Turned out he had a couple of AMRAMM's.
So he called the guy at the outlet desk and told him, and he freaked. It was gonna be an intl incident, and yadda.
Manuel said, how 'bout I just bring them back?
So this MSGT met him in Nuevo Laredo with (forged) import paperwork, and they hauled them back to SA.
Manuel did lose his concession to haul off packing stuff, though...
(At least that's what I heard.)
