Out of the Box 3

Just Numbers
           
Here's another round of alphanumeric brain teasers.  It doesn't quite go from A to Z, but hits many points in between.  Have fun!

Sample:

3 D of the C

Answer:           3 Days of the Condor

Now try these:

-273.15   DC at which MMS (AZ)

21  GS for a USP

5   V in the A

3   P in a HG

162  RSG in a MLBS

5280   F in a M

3   B of G in the US

6   A in the C of  C  (Better ask a serviceman)

31 W in the P of A (Of course that includes Under God)

13 in a BD





Don't go right to the answers unless you got them all.  Give your mind some acceptance time.
