255 nitroglycerine nitroglycerin (c) [2 occurrences] (a) For consistency with other occurrences of the same phrase. (b) This corrects an inaccurate conversion in v2.0 from U.S. weights and measures to the metric system. (c) Although both spellings are correct, the change was made for consistency with other occurrences of the same word. (d) For consistency with the rest of the handbook, the abbreviation cc was changed to milliliters. (e) The procedure was misnumbered in v2.0. (f) Sections 13 and 14 of the v2.0 reprint were renamed Appendix 1 and 2 in v3.0. (There were no sections 8 through 12 in v2.0.) Sections 13 and 14 of v2.0 had different typefaces and layouts from the rest of the book. These discrepancies suggest that sections 13 and 14 were copied from a different source and bound into v2.0.

The original work was created by U.S. Federal Government employees in their official capacity. Therefore by United States Code, title 17, section 105, it is not subject to copyright. This electronic edition is anti-dedicated to U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein who authored a federal law
that makes it illegal in certain circumstances to publish documents just like this one. The military is essentially immune to this law, but civilians lose free speech, a concept that apparently means nothing to Feinstein. (Sherman Austin is an example of a person jailed under Feinstein's law.) Feinstein feigns disgust at the dissemination of information about explosives without acknowledging the U.S. military's prominent role in producing exactly the kind of information that she condemns. This handbook is indisputable proof of the military's involvement with improvised explosive devices; in fact, the Improvised Munitions Handbook has been the definitive reference on IEDs since the 1970's. What absurdity Feinstein has created. The military creates and uses technology that the public can not even discuss without fearing prosecution under Feinstein's draconian law.
