I certainly don't know anything about the typewriters available at the time these memos were allegedly typed up. However, when I was in the 'Corps all I remember seeing were old manual Underwoods. All documents that I have are in Courier font.

My father was a Naval officer and I have his entire record here in my home. From 1943 to 1976, all of his documents are also in Courier.

Was the Air Guard so greatly funded that they had IBM's?? I remember that the Selectric and the Executive were very expensive.

There must be some retired military office pinkies here at Free Republic that might be able to cast some light on just what typewriters were being used by our military at the time these documents were supposed to have been produced.
