[CAM] Gold Key & Quartermaster Photos

[Jennifer Carlson]

Dahrien,

These are both excellent ideas.

Regarding the QM items, if we don't post the *location* of said storage unit, then how will someone know where to find the goodies?  Problem solved!  [And if by some chance items are stolen - as opposed to misplaced - then we know that someone with "inside" information was involved.]
