Mr. Sinclair, Sending electronics to China for scrap dollars and cannibalizing of parts is not advantageous! The proliferation of counterfeit electronics damages our economy and costs American jobs. Lastly, it poses a severe risk to our national security and the reliability of our weapons systems being fielded to our war-fighters.

The Department of Defense continues to spend millions of dollars and a myriad of resources to monitor international and U.S. distributors - and I can tell you firsthand that the proliferation of counterfeit electronics is epidemic. Before you or Columbia sends more computers to China please ask yourself if our men and women serving in uniform are worth the risk. They deserve better!

Very Respectfully,
