I have just been informed that the PS Magazine, (TB 43-Series) will end its printed format, on 17 June, 2017. After 66 years, (first PS Mag was printed in June 1961) of printed format, it will end. The last issue will be number 775

The PS Magazine will continue to be issued in digital format online and in PS Mobile APP.

Sad, sad.

So with a lack of connections, you don't get the latest info. That should help the guys in the field? Wonder who thought that one up! Oh yea, and sharing a Lap Top around the unit should work out great as well!

Just a quick adjustment- the first PS issue came out in June 1951. It had been preceded during the WW11 period by Army Motors magazine, both doing the job of getting information out into the field in advance of the time needed to issue changes to TM and TB publications.

IS the general public allowed access to those mediums?

IS the general public allowed access to those mediums?

Yep. Go to APD on he LOGSA website. Anyone can download documents that are classified A.

My problem with online anything is this. When the lights go out, a computer is just another paperweight.

What, no back up gen?

Yeah, one should always have a back up. But I can remember lots of time standing next to a soldier with my paper manual in hand, while they were looking for a plug to charge up the TM reader.
