Would anyone know how I can obtain a copy of the MCI course for Map Reading? I am involved with Cub Scouts and want to teach them this valuable knowledge. Thanks, and Semper Fi. Dave - dkdalpezzo@yahoo.com, 717-235-7143

Dave, check out a recruiter as they have access to the MIL PUBs.

Terrific idea - talk about not seeing the forest for the trees, I stop by there every now & then anyway! Thanks!

Say, Mac! Didn't know that existed. Just ordered the map reading. I thank you, and I'm sure my Cub Scouts probably won't thank you when they find out this will entail even more "forced marches". :-) The "Pixies" actually like to learn these things on our hikes.
Thanks again, and Semper Fi!

Number one single reason (used to be) for flunking out of Officer Canadiate School (OCS) was Land Navigation. This is according to my Korean Army 1stLt. Uncle.

Theres a thread in this place somewhere about 'ButterBars', and some accounts of their actions.

I received my map reading book yesterday from pentagon publishing - It's an Army book. I guess it'll work for CUB scouts, but I'll obtain a copy of the MCI course for the BOY scouts...
