So the US (Government?) Changed it's mind in regards to adopting the Metric System (no problem there I'm on the fence which is best)
But with that in mind WHY did the WW2 Military convert perfectly good Imperial Measurements into Metric ... there are countless example ... but one comes to mind this afternoon, is the 917mm Mortar launcher (Little David) built in WW2
It's EXACTLY 1 yard ... why call it 917 mm?
