In this episode, we aren't going to just ask and answer a bunch of questions about TC 3-25.26. No, we are going to focus on questions that are at a difficulty level that every PFC should be able to answer.
The episode is broken into 4 chapters:
The Pre-Test
The Lesson
The Re-Test
Repetition
Feel free to jump into the Pre-Test, and if you know everything, skip to the next difficulty level. If you want to know more about a question, stick around for the Lesson, where we will teach you what everything means. Then we'll re-evaluate at the Re-Test, and help you have it down consciously and sub-consciously in the Repetition chapter.
The questions we are going over are:
What are the three map sizes?
How many grid zones is the world divided into?
What is the textbook definition of an Azimuth?
What is the Grid-Magnetic Angle?
What does GPS stand for?
What are the Three Minor Terrain Features?
What is Map Orientation?
What are the three main Land Navigation Methods?
How many mils are in one degree?
How do you measure a curved distance, such as a road or stream, on a map using a graphic scale and a piece of paper?
Why is map reading a critical soldiering skill?
What is the elevation guide?
What is a handrail?
What is dead reckoning?
Why does the north star always point north?
What is the difference between latitude and longitude?
What does the word "Declination" mean?
What is a "Catching Feature" on a linear feature?
What is the "Straight Edge" method of intersection?
What is the "Flash-to-Bang" method of measuring distance?
