(this is not a misprint, this is ow it was written)
The men need the clothing "


So the men were issued three different types of blankets and two different types of jackets and trousers in this issue.

I have seen a form 40 from the 5th SCV showing 5 different types of shoes issued at once, ranging in price from $2.00 to $12.00!!!
