As promised in the other email, I had one other tidbit worth sharing some detail on but
that is very different from WECo promo and informational material. What I've got
here are two documents pertaining to the "Department of Defence Kernelized Secure
Operating System" project as undertaken by Ford's Western Development
Laboratories Division.
The documents in question are https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/pdfs/ADA111577.pdf and
https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/pdfs/ADA111566.pdf and represent the User's Manuals and
Final Report respectively on this KSOS system. These appear to be from the same
microfiche as the documents linked based on splotches on the last page's date frame,
although the copies I have here have the full frame, the PDFs linked seem to have the last
panel cropped to a small square in the middle. Not super significant, but sometimes
it's the little details.
Anywho, unfortunately I don't have much to report, I got a bit excited while looking
for these at first because I was having a hard time turning up PDFs, thought I had
stumbled upon something unseen for some time, but in the gulf between last email and this
I found them. Silver lining is one less set of documents to scan, but nothing to really
expose that isn't already a click away.
