While I now have a more than sufficient array of Menards military offerings in the US Army variant, I am still very interested in obtaining US Navy items to use for a naval port scene.  I would guess others could be seeking US Air Force items.  I think there are still ample opportunities for Menards to expand offerings for the military rail model genre. 

There are several of the existing Army flats that could be readily tweaked to fill that role,  the electrical generator and tarp covered load comes quickly come to mind.  There could also be interest in a number of construction equipment items being presented as part of a Navy Seabee construction battalion being transported to port for deployment.

What do others think, and are there other offerings you would like to see?

Since my son is serving in the Navy now I have some Lionel cars but I would like to see Menards expand the line for more Navy cars! 

I understand the affinity.  My father served in the Navy during WWII and stayed in service until nearly 1950,  An early train he got for me around 1959 was a Lionel Space and Military set that had a gray mini submarine on a flat car and another with a Navy observation helicopter.  I still have them, and they both hold fond memories.
