Can anyone assist me with the Military names and designation numbers for the Mine Plow and the Mine Roller packages?

Well after several Google searches I found it. In case anyone else needs it.

Mine Clearing Blade System
M.C.B.S.
and
Mine Clearing Roller System
M.C.R.S.

I don't know if it has a # for each (as in M1 or such). It may just be named.

In the Technical Manual for Mine Clearing Blade (TM 9-2590-509-23&P) for M1 tanks, there is no mention of any "M" number for the plow, so I assume there is none.
Of course you must remember that there are different mine plows for use on various vehicles. MCB for Abrams is completely different than one for Bradley.
