I wonder if they still teach use of map AND compass in the Infantry School at Fort Benning

What fun is GPS is you end up with all of the second lieutenants pointing to north in the same direction?

What is still the most dangerous weapon in the US Army inventory?

A Second Lieutenant with a map!

I still have the map of my battalion's area of operations in Germany. I assembled it when I was the Battalion S-4, to illustrate the logistical challenges of providing short range air defense to Bitburg, Hahn, and Spangdahlem air bases.
