[Milsurplus] LM utility without book

[Kevin Kibbe]

I would say that relying on a "calibration" book from WW2 to be laughable
for anything other than historical accuracy rather than actual accuracy. If
your going to use the meter for it's intended use your going to have to
correct the offsets in the cal book.
