US Marine Corps course – Land Navigation , page 1

After I started a thread on compasses I found some of you didn't know how to use a map and compass well here you go US Marine Corps course – Land Navigation SCRS 1201 It's in pdf format so you'll need acrobat reader to view but this is right from the Marine Corps University Sergeants Course handbook... enjoy and happy orienteering...

Let me know if the link stops working... to post it I had to use a free hosting site... if you want them I have other FMF manuals I can post too

Depends on his MOS I was one of those pesky trainers out at Lejeune So I have most things from the NCO training courses...

I was given the green light to upload a bunch of them to the media portal so I'll be making a special folder for FMF and Army manuals...plus anything else I can get my hands on... Once it's uploaded I'll post the link so you and your boy can go through the list and pick up what will help him in his career

Great post really important to know how to navigate. it is something that everyone overlooks with the use of gps. but if something happens and gps is not working it will come in handy. (if you have a compass on you)

Was at Geiger for his graduation from MCT this month ,and was awed by
the changes there.

We had to go back in and get three that had gotten so lost, they hunkered down and were just waiting for someone to find them...

Luckily none of them went to the Fleet with me...

Good Memories...

I hated Land Nav too , reverse azimuth my @$$

.

I was a Krulak Marine anyway so by the time I got to fleet , we had pluggers and some guys had their own GPS. Being the POG that I Was , If I ever had to actually REMEMBER what I learned in Land Nav and use it in the field , I would have been in a world of hurt.
