I haven't heard the "official" word from any "typewriter experts", but most people are saying the superscript in 111th wasn't possible on typewriters of the early 70s. IBM Selectric II from the mid to late 1960's could do superscripts and subscripts (severely impacting typing speed) and it was even possible to vary the pitch between 10 and 12 characters per inch (but rarely performed since it you would need to alter the pitch per character). The interesting comparison would be the letter where Killian recommended approval of 1st Lt. George W. Bush's Application for Discharge and then find out who supposedly typed these applications and memos since I doubt a Lt. Colonel would ever be able be able to vary the pitch as he typed.
