The Univac 1100 computers I used in college used the Fieldata character set. I only recently learned that Fieldata was the name of a whole program of the US Military in the late 1950s to create a standard for military and battlefield information processing. The Fieldata character code was developed for that project. I've read that Fieldata was one of the major influences on ASCII.
