Been finding a lot of US manuals from WW2 to present. Some really weird stuff and a heap of specific stuff. Some of these may be of use:

I got around a 1000 so mainly digging through the WW2 stuff

 

some are a bit big.... some are of dubious posting as some newer manuals like for Willys and weapons blueprints from ww2 (I doubt copyright but doubt appropriate) but most the mil docs are marked ok for public release even interregation techniques so if you want to know what your spouse got you for Christmas I can send the book :D

By astral are we talking sun compass or stars also?

 

c. Star Method.

 

 

(1) Less than 60 of approximately 5,000 stars visible

to the eye are used by navigators. The stars seen as we

look up at the sky at night are not evenly scattered across

the whole sky. Instead they are in groups called

 

 

constellations.

I am glad they have some use. If I find something specific to someones rebuild I send them to the guys if possible.

 

Nice book on Canadian tank building during ww2 also a lot of tactics books from ww2. Newer stuff are items like operators manual for a Chinook and NATO field surgery (depends what I use in the search engine).

 

The interogation manual was 10.2 Mb so I could not post here so in summary to find out what your spouse got you for Christmas "you should build rapport with them, if that dont work ascertain their breaking point" :cool2:
