It appears there are two spellings of that - caliber, calibre. Is re the standard military spelling or your personal preference?

I have no preference. In this case I took the version of the writer.

Generally, caliber and calibre refer to the same thing today...the inside diameter of a gun barrel.

Back when Jesus was a corporal, USNAV used to have a different formula....I forget the details.
