The following general changes were made in this revision and are not marked with vertical bars: a. Changed all instance of “title block page“ to title page to
8、reflect terminology used in AR 25-30, MIL-STD-38784, etc. b. Clarified use of terms “task,“ “procedure,“ “function,“ and “instruction“. Each work package can have one or more tasks. Function and task are synonymous. Procedure and instruction are synonymous. Term usage and figures were corrected as r
9、equired. c. Changed “CD“ to disc or CD/DVD as appropriate to reflect the current usage of both CDs and DVDs. Also, changed spelling of “disk“ to disc. d. Verified correct usage of material vs materiel and changed terms as required. e. Corrected usage of numbers (e.g., spell out numbers less than ten
10、, use numbers for those greater than ten.) f. Corrected inconsistencies with “supersedure“ vs “supersession“. g. Corrected inconsistencies in use of “technical manual“. h. Corrected paragraph caveats to reflect maintenance classes rather than maintenance levels. i. Changed “operators“ to operator in
11、 TM titles. j. Table of Contents updated to reflect changes made elsewhere in this standard. k. Typos and other errors including referencing errors corrected.
