New MIL-STD-2073/1E with Change Notice 1 is now available

MIL-STD-2073/1 Revision E with Change Notice 1 interfiled has just been released and is available for sale from Document Center Inc.   The document is titled Standard Practice for Military Packaging and is widely used in fulfillment of U.S. government contracts.

The MIL-STD-2073/1 outlines standard processes for the development and documentation of military packaging.  This standard covers methods of preservation to protect materiel against environmentally induced corrosion and deterioration, physical and mechanical damage, and other forms of degradation during storage, multiple handling, and shipment of materiel in the defense transportation system. A decision chart is included for determining how to develop military packaging requirements.  If military packaging is applicable, the chart will further aid in the development of detailed packaging requirements.

The standard states that changes from the previous issue are not notated in the margins, but this appears to be incorrect.  The notation lines that are used to alert users to changes in specific parts of the text can be found where changes have been made.  There are a number of these changes for users to review.
