Hmm.  Doesn't find MIL-TGDBP-41.  I got this from my (now late) great uncle, Bob
Sedgwick -- who was to hydraulics what I am to computers, only he has a number
of patents.

Some smart-aleck at Wright Field, as it then was, put this on a drawing, and it
went without comment for quite a while until someone tried to look it up.  This
escalated to a bird colonel, who then tracked down the miscreant.

It stands for Make It Like The G-D Blueprint For Once.

Maybe the correct number is MIL-STD-188-115?

I haven't heard that one before.  I try to slip in the TLAR check in all
the test procedures I write.  When 'they' ask, I look at it and say:
"That Looks About Right".
