That's what I thought. I knew that Krupp (now Thyssen Krupp Stahl AG)
is a RL company, but I wasn't so sure about Saeder Munitions. I came
up empty on three different search engines, so I was fairly certain that
Saeder Munitions was a figment of Tom Dowd's/Nigel Findley's
imagination. But I just wanted to be sure that there wasn't anything else
I might have overlooked.
