I do. The cover reads:

"REFERENCE MANUAL FOR THE Ada(R) PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE" (Note the one
word that isn't all caps :-) ).

The only phrase that seems to appear on every (actually, every
*other*) page is:

"ANSI/MIL-STD-1815A Ada Reference Manual"

A proper acronym for that would probably be something like: "A/MARM"
:-)
