Excerpt:  "Known contractors for the fork and spoon M-1926, Corrosive resistant steel are: Diamond Silverware Company (
1944-1945); International Silverware Company (1944-1945); Silco USA Division of International Silver Company (SILCO) (1945); National Silver Company (1945); Oneida Ltd (1945); and R. Wallace & Sons Company (Wallco 1945). Specification MIL-F-284A (1950), changed the nomenclature of the M-1926 corrosive resistant steel utensils to: Fork, Field Mess, Spoon, Field Mess, and Knife, Field Mess. Specification MIL-F-284C, dated 1962, changed the knife to a one-piece stamping, and shortened the tines of the fork by .6 of an inch. This proved to be the last pattern of Army utensils to be issued."
