Yeah modern, no for sure.
whats statute of limitations for even knowing about theft of military property? Never? Oh
I KNOW a man who is in prison still for trying to sneak back some captured weaponry. And I HEARD about others that never got caught.
I promise it was not me. I was way too chicken **** and by the book to do any of that ****
We had to do Customs inspections, hated that crap, what a waste of my time. We did catch people trying to smuggle stuff back all the time. Our biggest catch was a fuselage of a blackhawk in a Conex which was jam packed full of all sorts of full auto AKs, dragonovs, PKMs, a couple sterlings and tons of pistols. I grabbed their 1SGT, told them to get it cleaned out because I was sure I was seeing things. Came back to it 30 minutes later and it was clean.
