This page houses sketches of maps
produced by the commanders of combat patrols,
most dating from the period 1928-1930,
when the geographic knowledge of the Marines &
Guardia was sparse and the Second Brigade's
Mapping Section hungry for more detailed
information about the spatial characteristics of
the country the Marines had invaded & occupied.
Generally these
sketch maps also appear in PC-Docs,
along with the patrol & combat reports with
which they were submitted & archived.
