PS, The Preventive Maintenance Monthly
''PS, The Preventive Maintenance Monthly'' is series of United States Army technical bulletins published since June 1951 as a monthly magazine with comic book-style art to illustrate proper preventive maintenance methods. (The magazine's title derives from its being a "postscript" to technical manuals and other published maintenance guidance.)
== Origin ==
The Army had experienced some degree of acceptance and success during WWII with the instructional publication ''Army Motors'', for which Corporal Will Eisner, an established comic-book writer-artist-editor, had been appropriated to draw such characters as Beetle Bailey-like Private Joe Dope, Lauren Bacall look-alike and "by the book" Corporal Connie Rodd, and Master Sergeant Half-Mast McCanick. Eisner left the Army as a Chief Warrant Officer to start American Visuals Corporation, a contract graphic art company. In response to a sudden need for maintenance instruction at the start of the Korean War, the Army contracted American Visuals in 1951 to create instructional material similar to Eisner's work on ''Army Motors'' for the Army Ordnance Corps's new publication, ''PS, The Preventive Maintenance Monthly''.
