Never Get Lost: The Green Beret's Compass Course. Glossary. Best and most simple land navigation system anywhere. The other two "methods" of finding your way around are: Buy an expensive GPS and take lessons. Learn to coordinate a map, declinate by adding or subtracting to compensate for the fact that Magnetic North and True North are miles apart. More lessons. The Positive Azimuth, Uniform Layout system is simple. No math (declination) required; no battery failure, no P-code dependence. Kids learn easily. System is now in use by elite military units. The author is a former Army Green Beret who speaks 3 languages and who publishes books across the nation. Basically, this is a book about never getting lost anywhere, while on foot or driving, during day or night. If you don't drive in the woods and only travel during the day, you can get by with the overview and Chapter four. You'll find the core of the system for outdoors persons on foot (backpackers, hikers, hunters, and fisherpersons) right there. For those who hit the outdoors in a vehicle (four-wheeler, motorcycle, mountain bike, boat) see Chapter 7. If you'll be tactical, take a look at Chapter 5. New military applications for tactical people are in Chapter 6. This simple method is great for woods, deserts, jungles & cities, on foot or driving. Condition: Very good.
