697 Stable Orderly

Appendix B identifies SSN 697 as Stable Orderly under AR 615-26 of September 1942 and its supplements, and suggests SSN 710 for reclassification. This was not an automatic conversion: each individual's Qualification Card had to be reviewed against the manual's job specifications.
