(2) Headquarters not listed above are expressed<br />
as follows:<br />
(a) Distribution to interested organizations only<br />
is indicated by the T/O or T/O & E numbers of the<br />
orgafiizationsi In instances where the T/O or T/O L<br />
E number governs, more than one type of organizak<br />
tion, the name of the organization is so indicated.<br />
(b) Where no T/O or T/O & E number has been<br />
assigned, the name of the organization, or’an abbre<br />
vi&ion of the name as set forth in Army ‘Regulae<br />
tions, may be used. Commonly used abbreviations,<br />
which are clear, also may be used. 1 .<br />
f. Numbers.’ When not in parentheses, numbers<br />
indicate the arm or service (see par 13 a above).<br />
When in parentheses, numbers indicate the number<br />
of copies to be furnished.<br />
g. Combination of Abbreviations and Numbers.<br />
(1) When an abbreviation is not followed by any<br />
numbers except in parentheses, the publication is<br />
distributed to all headquarters described by the ab-<br />
breviation. For example: A (10) indicates that 10<br />
copies of the publication will be distributkd to each<br />
Army.<br />
(2) When an abbreviation is followed by nurk-<br />
bers, the publication is distributed only to the ‘head-<br />
quarters of organizations whose arms or services<br />
are identified by the numbers. Where a dash is used<br />
between numbers, it indicates that all of the arms<br />
and services between and including the end numbers I<br />
are included in the distribution. For example: R 2,<br />
5-9 (2)) 17 (5) would indicate that two copi.es were<br />
to be distributed to the headquarters of each Cav-<br />
alry, Engineer, Field Artillery, Infantry, Medical,<br />
and Ordnance Regiment or Group, and that 5 copi&<br />
were to be distributed to the Headquarters of eac?h<br />
Armored Group.<br />
(3) When the publication is intended for a par-,<br />
titular section or individual within a headquarters,<br />
the fact is stated -parenthetically. For example: D<br />
(Surg) (3) means that the Division Surgeon .re-<br />
ceives 3 copies.<br />
(4) In addition to the distribution shown in the<br />
formula, there may be certain additional special dib-<br />
tributions which are not considered necessary to list<br />
in the formula. Note that certain symbols which<br />
