Karten- und Geländekunde - Maps and Topography. Another fine Denckler manual is now in English. This 27 page manual explains map scales, map reading, map terrain, road and railroad symbols, ground contour lines, and how to determine your own position and navigate in the country using the compass, sun, stars, and landmarks. In short, this is where to start to learn about German maps and navigation.
How to properly draw terrain sketches and other types of maps for combat and reconnaissance assignments, what colors are used, how maps and sketches are labeled, and what shouldn't be on the sketch, are all nicely explained. This is a beginner's manual and gives the basics on how its all done. Many map symbols are shown in some of the 15 illustrations in this manual, but it is an instructional manual, not just a manual listing the map symbols.
