[R-390] A modest proposal (was Y2K Addendum)

[Tom Norris]

In the back of the 42 meg version of the TM 11-856A that's floating  
around out there are 1200 dpi scans that I made back in '96 or so.  I  
think I can also make some photos that match the photos in the mil  
manuals.  I don't have a studio and I've only had so-so luck with hi- 
res photos of an entire module.

Some of those earlier scans are quite clear as they were made from  
the 1956 manual.  The images in the later manuals lacked the quality  
and clarity of the earlier versions.

I think that large version of the manual is on the "Pearls" site.
