Did a typewriter in 1972 have built-in automatic kerning? Let's not get bloody ridiculous. Even if you could dig up some advanced, expensive equipment back then that could with a lot of tweaking recreate these documents, what would be the chance of a simple military memo from a small office being written on it? And match perfectly a document written in Word today? Zilch.

This is like seeing a Boing 747 in a movie supposedly from World War II, and some partisan defenders insisting that really, jet engines existed and were in use back then so it could have been genuine.

The chances are about equivalent to smashing your Timex watch, and having said parts spontaneously re-assemble themselves into a Rolex.
