Handbooks with publica- tion dates prior to I August 1962 were published as 20-series Ordnance Corps pamphlets. AMC Circular эW0-"8. 19 July 1963, redesignated those publications as 706-series AMC pamphlets (i.e., RODP 20-138 was redesignated AMCP 706-138).

All new, reprinted, or revised Handbooks are being published as 706-series AMC pamphlets.
