Yes, it should, but since the game has been obsoleted by a 2nd edition, it probably will not be. However, in cases like this where a rule is clarified in the 2nd edition which also exists in the 1st edition, it’s safe to apply the clarification retroactively to the 1st edition as well.
Spring 1942 rulebook available for download

No big news of course, as most of you will know, but I wondered why there is no link to the rulebook of Spring 1942 in this subforum.
At least not a stickied one.May be it is because Wizards/AH made them available to the public some time after the release of the game.
Anyway, here is the link to the Spring 1942 rulebook:
