Normandy Map 6- Trevieres(Omaha Beach)

Reproduction "Trevieres" map in 1:25,000 scale.  This scale map was most commonly used by platoon leaders, company commanders, and senior platoon/company NCO's in Normandy for use in land navigation and tactical movements. 

This map primarily showsw a section of Fox Green, and Easy Red as well as the inland areas behind Omaha beach.  Although this map only shows a small section of the beach iteself, this maps would have been critical that all officers and NCO's because it shows what is behind the beaches and what towns and road intersections are critical to capture and hold

Keep in mind that geographic maps used in World War Two were not being made in relation to the tactical environment of the battlefield.  Most if not all cartographers (map makers) did not know where the D-Day invasion (or any other invasion) was going to take place so you often find that key objectives are split over several different maps.  That being the case officers and NCO's often carried numerous maps not knowing if their tactical movement would keep them on one map or take them across several maps.  

These reproductions are made from scans of the original maps and maintain the same size, color, and scale of the originals.  The grid squares maintain their original size and can be used accurately with modern or vintage protractor tools.  They have been color printed on one side of 20LB engineering paper leaving the back of the map white.  

Whether folded and creased to fit in a pocket or map case for field use or kept flat to be framed for static display these maps will make great additions to any collection. ​
