Classification
CR4877
This proposal to establish a number for the Great
Britain’s Distinguished Service Order (DSO) was not necessary because
a number already existed for it, at CR4823. However, since the DSO is a
military decoration it should be classified in UB435.G8. The number
CR4823 has been cancelled and parenthesized and a reference has been
made to UB435.G8.
Subject Headings
Subdivisions to be added to lists of free-floating subdivisions:
H 1158, Materials
$x Service life
Other decisions:
Vila Real, House of
The House of Vila Real was aristocratic, but it was not
royalty (i.e., it was not the ruling family of a monarchy). The heading
should be proposed as a family name, per Subject Headings Manual H 1574.
The proposal may be resubmitted.
