Re: Topographical maps

The topographic maps I used mostly were those my Uncle provided. I learned land navigation, compass declination, UMC, etc. The most fun was in target location. Determining six and eight digit grids to locate an artillery target within 100 and 10 meters respectively, by eye, at a distance of 10 kilometers or more was a true skill. And then to have that location skill verified by the on-target impact of a battery or battalion or Division Artillery … makes me want to channel Tim Allen. :patriot:
