Great information!  When I was an 18B I used to teach this information to my ODA.  There are third world soldiers walking around with magazines full of bad ammo because they loaded a bad lot number.  You don’t want that to happen to you so it’s important to be able to decipher the markings on foreign ammunition boxes and cans.  I’ll root through my reference material in the meantime and see if I can find the translations for Chinese and Arabic as well.  Thanks the pointer Soldier Systems.
