This link was made after a language model re-read the damaged OCR (deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Pro); the reading was accepted only because the number and date or title it reported agree with the catalog. Its note: “Serial header 'NEWS OF THE DAY' from context. Part 210. Original date '150ct43' = 1943-10-15. Original number 'mi4i122' likely MP14122 (OCR misread: m=MP, i=1, 4=4, i=1, 122=122).
