It's not an actual word, but it's officially part of DA PAM 25-20, the regulation on correspondence. Whenever a memorandum must go from one commander, through another, and finally to a decision authority, the "through" commander is listed as "THRU." I hate it.

Lorelei Longshot, SASS #44256 Life Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 Scarves is the preferred plural because of other nouns that end in an F sound when singular and -ves when plural. For example, thief becomes thieves and knife becomes knives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
