Notes on Transcribing this page (optional)
Next page indicates A Y M should be A L M; however, transcribed as seen here This middle letter is a "Q." "AQM" stands for "Assistant Quarter Master." On this page, the "Q" looks similar to a "Y" or a "G," and on Page 62 the cursive "Q" looks similar to an "L," but it is a "Q." Jlch
