[MV] GPW dipstick - too small?

I read in the "Essential Military Jeep" that
"the dipstick on the Ford-built engine was found to be
set five-eighths of an inch too low, thereby giving the
impression that the engine contained more oil than was
actually the case."

Is this news to anyone else?

So I guess I should fill it 5/8 above the 'full' line - any opinions/advice?

Thanks.

People talk about travelling "to find themselves".
I don't travel to find myself.
I travel to find myself in foreign places.
