Speaking of military vessels, I seem to get boarded at least once every trip; for some reason my boat must look like a good prospect for some gigs. More than once I've had the USCG "AHA, fire extinguisher inspection not current (CO2)", to which I reply, "...no, son, that one is for putting out the fire, this one over here is for you guys to inspect (the dry chemical). The point is that the profliferation of dry chemical extinguishers is mainly related to the expense and difficulty of getting CO2 units weighed and recertified while on the road.
