456 Calker

Appendix B identifies SSN 456 as “Calker” in the AR 615-26 September 1942 and supplements column and suggests SSN 202 as a possible replacement. This was not an automatic conversion: each affected Marine’s Qualification Card had to be reviewed against the job specifications before selecting the appropriate classification.
