Sorry Sieger, but you're seeing what you expect to see rather than what is there.

What's being 'implemented' is the acceptance of the 9 mm Luger cartridge as a US issue cartridge. The US notified NATO the USA was accepting the 9 mm cartridge the year after the Beretta model 92 was accepted as a standard US sidearm.
