Re: Mid-war Naval Coordinate System

Thanks for the help. However, I'm not there yet. Everything I can find on Naval maps on the web refers to a grid system with the major sectors designated by two letters. A complete location would be those two letters followed by four digits. That's the map system the gyges site refers to, Tomislav -- plus I can't get its converter to work (I can't execute the .exe file). I did get a printout of a map covering England & northern France from the site, which is the territory I need. I need to work with it and see if its two-letter major grid sectors match up somehow with the "14 West", etc., which III./JG 2 was using. These look like the Luftwaffe grid's designations for the major squares.

Chris -- do your maps have the two letter designators for the major squares, or something similar to the III./JG 2 system?

Horrido!

Don
