    Hey all,

    I have had a lot of military field manuals over the years, but this is the first one with the word "draft" on it. Was this never supposed to leave Fort Leavenworth? Could this be a one of a kind?

    Just really curious if anyone has seen something like this before?

    It appears to be updates and corrections to a previous volume. The original material was published 1/9/47 and the volume with revisions went out effective 1/10/47. Kinda like when your health insurance company provides corrections to your policy after it's been issued.
