[Milsurplus] Defense Department Drawings found on Computer cards - ?

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

Not particularly related to aperture cards but around that same time, DA 
begain putting older TM 11's on microfiche.  I have a few of them, ordered 
through the Department of the Interior, which for some strange reason was the 
cognizant distributor of DA pubs.  AFAIK, DAF shredded all of their older 
pubs and no one seems to know what DN did with theirs, except that they never 
surfaced (pun intended).
