Military Srip?

[Ironside]

Hi! Short-time lurker here.

First off I'd like to express my thanks to the members of this board for the quantity and quality of the threads and information here. I've spent several days going through old threads gleaning all sorts of useful stuff. Mind you I had to pick my jaw up off the floor first . I wish I'd found you guys earlier.

The thread on cantonments got me thinking about the economic interaction between them. In areas that are under the control of NATO forces for instance, cantonments would be trading back and forth with each other and the soldiers would want some means to enable them to purchase the goods and services available from local civilians. I imagine that soldiers would get some sort of pay.

I have thought of a mechanism to enable this via overprinting of extant currency bills with say 'MilGov' or something similar. As printing technology is no longer widespread this might well be viable. What are people's thoughts and comments?
