Yep. That's why I wrote '. . .printed under a gov't contract.' meaning to
include the development was also under the contract. The Government
Printing Office would have printed such a doc too.

Must be some
docs for a government contract prepared outside of the
contract at Rolm's (or the prime contractor's) expense. Often, anything
printed under a government contract is not copyrighted.
I suspect that the distinction is whether the material was developed at
government expense rather than who printed it. After all, it is the
content that is copyrighted, not the manual itself.
