Errors like mistaking "MFP 8 JUN 1959" as the manufacturing date of a BC-610! Seems like a pretty fundamental misunderstanding of US military usage and equipment history.
It's hard to get folks to change this type of incorrect information, for some reason. Just like one fellow's web-site that continues to claim (as did his article in ER) that the R-648/ARR-41 was a replacement for the BC-348, several years after that error was pointed out.
