Very interesting reading. Regarding the translation, though, when some
co-workers helped me translate another Chinese MIL radio manual, some of
the phraseology came out just like the referenced post did. Literal
translations for other than direct technical date are rough to work
with. And... if you think the manual, per se, was tough to decipher
and/or humorous, you should have read the translation of Chairman Mao's
preface memo in my manual!!! Now there was a memo!!! HI!!

Any chance we can see that translation of Chairman's Perfect Wisdom?

I used to have Mao in a fantasy "World Domination" league. But he
crapped out before Cambodia fell...
