(we still teach basic land nav with compasses and maps, don’t worry)

You could have had me fooled. I haven't seen a 1:50,000 map over here. There are plenty of ONC maps, and a whole slew of specialty maps, but those used for navigation are in short supply.

At times, I think these boys would be lost without all their toys.

You don’t have maps? When we (a Stryker BDE) deployed to Iraq, we took a ton of navigation maps with us. We never used them, they never came out of the connex, but we had ‘em.
