[Milsurplus] Solder Joints

[Hubert Miller]

>MIL-STD-2000A is perhaps the current military soldering spec, See:

It indicates that the wrap around a terminal is a minimum of 180 degrees and 270 degrees maximum.  Unsoldering is as much a skill as soldering.  The only real requirements are patience, a little solder wick, a pick to unwrap the wire and some more patience.

This doc is not what you'd call "gripping reading". However - on what page will i find the above lead wrap info ? I didn't find it on my first pass.
180 degrees is ½  360, so i'm having a tough time imagining a 180 lead wrap.
