Description

Five variously dated French maps, glued and taped together, that show an area of Northern France near Neufchatel, Montdidier, Laon, Soissons, etc. Strips of paper, glued to the area between the Neufchatel and Montdidier maps, show a staging area with headquarters, unit positions, training areas, communication centers, medical services, etc. To the right of this are multi-colored lines that indicate the movement of troops and battle lines. Annotations near and along the right edge of the map indicate movement from October 11 to October 13. In addition, several red arrows, near the top right of the map, show points of advance. Pencil notes on the back read: "Neufchatel/Montdidier/Laon/Soissons, 1:80,000, Annotated, Unknown I.D." Other handwriting reads: "Assemblage, Neufchatel-Montdidier, 1/80,000."
