Mil Std 2219A was published 18-Jul-2005

It superseeds 2219

One of the specific differences produced by the updated version is to make welder performance qualifications subordinate to AWS D17.1

Thanks that is the way I read it also. I am having a lively debate with one of our customers QA Managers over this standard. He keeps saying that our welders have to be certified to this standard and I keep telling him they are if you read section 3 in 2219A it says that welders meet that requirement if the are certified to AWS D17.1.
