There's an anthology called (I think) _Body Armor 2000_, or something
like
that.  I own it; but I can't remember the editor, and therefore can't
find
it right now....  The stories were of uneven quality, bur some of them
were
quite good.

David Drake's _Northworld_ had some PA in it...I assume that the sequels
did as well, but I gave up on the book halfway through, so I can't be
certain.

Damn.  I know that there must be more, but I can't think of any right
now.
