[Milsurplus] AFM100-33??? AF retirees especially needed

[gl4d21a at juno.com]

OK, gang, now that we have all our frequency meter cal. books all 
printed, here is my next quest:  I hold in my hands an Air Force 
Manual, AFM 100-33, 1 Aug 1960 which is very informative.  Maybe too 
informative.  The title is "Army, Navy, and Commercial Communications 
Systems".  Subtitled USAF Communications-Electronics Doctrine, Short 
Title CED 3300.  

Within the 70 or so pages of text, maps and line drawings, it gives 
an overview of every communications system on the face of the planet 
which is or might be available to the USAF (besides their own) for 
medium or long haul communications.  There is a foldout page with a 
couple dozen blocks all connected by lines, RUEP TO RUAG and so 
forth, STARCOM Routing diagram (Army).  Similar treatment of 
worldwide Navy comms.  The Bell system (remember this is 1960) is 
covered in a dozen pages, including TD-2, and TH microwave, and VF, L-
1 and L-3 cable routes.  ITT, RCA International, Western Union, they 
are all in there.  Just about everything you would want to know about 
how to get a message from here to there, or more importantly to 
certain people, where the principal nodes are located.

Two questions:  Has anyone else ever seen a copy of this document, or 
even heard it existed?
Is there a current edition of same, maybe under a different number or 
is it now classified as this probably should have been?

73,
