I did not make an error. Specialist Fourth Class was universally used and
continues to be universally used. Check your search engines. Virtually every
military website uses Specialist Fourth Class for Sp/4. While some almost
unknown military reg may state otherwise, Specialist Fourth Class is widely used
by virtually all US Army personnel. You purposely ignored the US Government
website that showed that Sp/4 was an official abbreviation for Specialist
Fourth Class. You've ignored voluminous evidence proving that I am right while
you find some obscure US Army reg that means absolutely nothing in the real
world.
Lee Parsons (aka Outgoing V. Incoming) made fun of a real Vietnam vet because he
said he was a Specialist Fourth Class. Lee Parsons is a wannabe. If you wish
to stand behind wannabes, that is your choice.
