content: This subseries consists of notebooks, arranged numerically that relate to component inserting  projects authorized by the Research Department.  The notebooks are arranged numerically with the name of the employee maintaining the notebook listed. Notebooks issued officially by USMC were designed to be keyed to the EX (experimental) and ND (new development) numbers assigned by the Research Department. The notebooks are paginated and in some instances witnessed and dated. They consist primarily of handwritten notes for formulas, testing data, drawings, schematics and photographs documenting work conducted by the Research Department.  In some instances there are loose notes, memoranda, and sketches folded inside the notebooks. Names of research staff and date(s) are included.
