Weird...

My library gave away predecessors to this work from the 40's and 50's last year. Lo and behold, though, the Consolidated Army Publications and Forms Index [DA PAM 25-30] announces that the current version is restricted to US Govt agencies only. I wonder if the new secret version discusses how to use lemon juice and lighters to leave secret messages...
