If money is no object, could you get the M80s shipped to a depot of some kind, outside of the base, and pick them up yourself sometime?

That aside, don't feel bad about getting M60s, I own two pairs and I always say that I can't imagine anything sounding better than they do. I'm sure the 80s may be a bit better but it is all relative to what you are used to. The 60s will BLOW YOU AWAY. Errr maybe I should not put it quiet that way, considering your profession.... Thank you for what you do though!

With great power comes Awesome irresponsibility.
