132.0.0.0/10 not in the databases

My theory is that DISO-UNRRA were originally allocated 132.1.0.0/16 through
132.15.0.0/16 in the classful world - these are all in the ARIN DB under
various military guises. When CIDR came along, it seems that someone must
have decided that because 132.0.0.0/16 was now available and part of a
bigger block, it could be added to the announcement, etc...?
There are a total of four like this:
Network Origin AS Description
132.0.0.0/10 568 DISO-UNRRA
135.0.0.0/13 10455 Lucent Technologies
137.0.0.0/13 568 DISO-UNRRA
158.0.0.0/13 568 DISO-UNRRA
Just a theory - but the above 4 could do with the x.0.0.0/16 being put in
ARIN's db, if the allocation can be proven...
