Dear Half-Mast,
I sent a CD for recycling to NESAR Systems, Darlington, PA;
however, it was “returned to sender.” PS Issue 523, Page 59
lists NESAR for recycling. Has there been a change?
Sincerely,
SGT J.G.S.

Has Your PATS Been
Calibrated?
Right now, NBC NCOs, check the calibration
stickers on your M41 PATS.
Army records
show 1,600 PATS have overdue calibrations,
which means they may no longer be giving
accurate readings.
If your PATS needs cali-
brating, turn it in to your local TMDE.
TMDE units in CONUS, the Far East, Alaska,
and Hawaii should send their PATS to:
TMDE
ATTN: AMSAM-TMDE-SS
Bldg 5435, Fowler Rd
Redstone Arsenal, AL 35898-5400
Units in Europe and Southwest Asia should
send their PATS to:
TMDE Region Europe
ATTN: AMSAM-TMD-GE-PL
Zepplinstrasse 152
Pirmasens, Germany 66953

Tank Engine/Transmission Oils
Under
no circumstances
should you use
15W/40 oil in the engine of your M1-series
tank. 15W/40 multi-grade oil—as well as
OE/HDO-30 (10° to 125°F) and OEA (-70° to
20°F)—is for use in the tank’s transmission. The
only engine oil to use is MIL-PRF-23699 (-10°F
and above) or MIL-PRF-7808 (0 to -65°F). Check
your -10-2 TMs to make sure the info listed
there is correct. If not, grab your pencil and
note the change until the TM is updated.
Tips on Getting FED LOG
Users who get FED LOG through LOGSA’s FED
LOG Request Addressing System must immedi-
ately update their accounts. Log into the
addressing system, enter your account number,
and follow the instructions. Users can opt for
the traditional five-disc CD-ROM set or a single
DVD; both are centrally funded for FY06. FED
LOG is also available on the ILAP website:
Mount TM on the Internet
TM 9-1005-245-13&P, which covers the machine gun mounts, has been updated and is avail-
able on the ETM (electronic technical manual) website at
which requires a password. The updated version is also available on ETM 0065. Don’t throw
away your old TM, though. TM 9-1005-335-13&P, which will cover the M66 ring mount, is
being published later this year. Until it comes out you will still need the old version of TM 9-
1005-245-13&P for M66 info.

no need
