Subject: U.S. Court of Military Appeals serial

Greetings serials librarians!

   I am new to this list and new to my position as serial cataloger, so
please be patient.  I need some help.

   On my desk is a box containing 14 issues with the title, "Advance
opinions of the United States Court of Military Appeals and the United
States Army, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard Courts of Military Review."
It was shelved with Decisions of the United States Court of Military
Appeals (OCoLC 1714265) which has a terminal date of 1975.  The issues I
have are dated 1975-76 and one issue is 1976-77.  I couldn't find a record
in OCLC under this title.  Can anyone shed some light on this publication?

   If I can find that the information is duplicated in another publication,
we can discard these issues.  The verso tells me that the headnotes are
"classified to" another publication (which we have), but I've been told (by
a law student working in the department) that what I have in my hand
contains much more information than the headnotes alone.

   Should I catalog this title alone?  Does it go with another title?  If
you have this title in your library, I'd appreciate hearing how you would
handle it.  Many thanks in advance.

P.S.  I'd rather be at the beach than cataloging this!
