[MV] GAA grease

Next in my series of possibly-dumb questions about civilian
equivalents for things with military names:

Can I use plain NLGI #2 lithium grease in my M109A3 wherever my LO
tells me to use "GAA"? I vaguely recall somebody posting a long time
ago that GAA is just plain cheap grease, and that the civilian lithium
stuff is much better. My truck is straight out of military service;
should I clean out all of the old GAA before replacing it with the
civilian stuff?

Are there any applications where I need to use the fancier black
molybdenum disulphide grease? In my civvy truck, there's one joint
where I need to use that stuff, and everything else uses the plain
lithium stuff.
