Yeah after I wrote that I remebered that those pre-MIL numbers are older
than I thought and that the PL-259 stood for what you said, which I knew it
to mean. How things change but yet remain the same.

=> PL-259 stands for Plug number 259. It is a circa 1940 addition to the
=> Signal Corps number system that the Army started in World War 1. If you
=> really gotta know the old Signal Corps stock number, it is 2Z7226-259.
