For those of us with historical interest, are there available:
- MIL-STD-1815
- Red language manual
- Green language manual
- any other color manual (I don't recall -- weren't there three?)

If these are only available on paper, I'll pay for copying and
postage, and then make copies available for copying cost (if
copyright allows, of course).

Thanks,
Sam Mize
