Subject:Military Specifications From:"Donald R. Stovicek" <usadad -at- RAEX -dot- COM> Date:Sat, 8 Aug 1998 12:56:41 -0400
Can anyone on this list point me to a good source of information on
Military Specifications for Technical Manuals?
Though I have been a technical writer for the past 30 years and have
frequently seen job postings requiring familiarity with Mil-Specs, what
they consist of and what is required to become "familiar" with them is
still a mystery.
Are Military Specifications for Technical Manuals something that span
volumes of information or are they contained in some phamphlet or
brochure-size publication?
Does anyone know where they might be viewed online?
Thanks
