beachhead:what is the ideal length of the oxygen 6 decal? is it 10" ?
Vie:I really don't think it matters as long as it is clear and legible to you AND your team...
Mine are 11" long...
rjack321:To expand upon the standards citation...
metric MOD numbering does not overlap with any of the imperial MOD numbering - its distinct/unique
That said, its best be be consistent within your team to metric or imperial cause it could be confusing UW otherwise. Consistency across teammates negates the need for the "m"
Because DIR is not about to teach people use a different system of units. Most of the world and science use metric, some small pockets use imperial..... the way the world is.OneBrightGator:Better question yet... why does a DIR allow personal preference when it comes to units of measure???
Meng_Tze:the 'm' adds to certain clarity though. All my markings are with 3" letters and include the 'm' so that there is no mistake that the MOD's are in metric.
you got me...but I can do imperial if you need me to.rjack321:Pray tell, you're not a little pocket of metric in FL are you??
