The Mil Spec that covered this capacitor was MIL-C-5/10. This has been 
canceled. The basic MIL Spec is available here: 
<http://www.dscc.dla.mil/Programs/MilSpec/ListDocs.asp?BasicDoc=MIL-C-5> .

My take on this is that this is a 0.039 MFD capacitor, +/- 5%, temperature 
rating of -55 to +85 degrees C, The voltage does not decode and is probably 
100 VDC, it appears to have a temperature coefficient of -20/+100 ppm / 
degree C +/- (0.1%+ 0.1 pF).

Hope that this helps some.
