In Tex Live 2008, milstd.tex appears under the "doc" tree:
texmf-dist/doc/latex/logic/milstd.tex
Hence, latex can't find that file with the default kpathsea setup. Telling
latex where to find milstd.tex reveals the second problem with that file:
(./milstd.tex
! Text line contains an invalid character.
l.34 ^^Z
The file ends with a DOS end-of-file marker, which causes latex to choke,
at least on Linux.
A third problem with milstd.tex, which you may or may not want to fix, is
that the .tex extension precludes the use of \usepackage{milstd}. Instead,
one has to \input{milstd} to use that package.
