There is also one on the NE corner of 35th Ave and Osborn (1/2 way
between Indian school and Thomas). 33.29.282/112.8.035

I have been to the 43rd/Northern as well 33.33.203/112.9.036
http://www.alliedsurplus.com/
They (35/osborn) do have a good selection of rain ponchos I purchased
two there. I did not see anywhere near the selection on the 43rd ave
location in terms of clothing. They also have ammo cans, etc.
Apparently there is a military outlet at the National guard reservation
at 52nd Street and McDowell
http://www.ngaaz.org/store.html
5640 E. McDowell Rd., Phoenix, AZ 85008 - In the area of
33.27.934/111.57.763
Info on Laradas -
http://laradas.com 33.24.920/111.50.883 A good store
for this kind of stuff.
