SAIPAN MAP help needed.

Does anyone have, or know where I might find a map or maps from the '44 invasion of SAIPAN as issued to select personel with the units that went ashore?

 

The map(s) I am after were the 1:20,000 scale 'SPECIAL AIR AND GUNNERY TARGET MAP', which I think for Saipan and Tinian may mean there was more than one map for each island? They would be gridded with letters and numbers etc. I have never seen these specific ones before, though the one for Iwo can be found on line and others seem to turn up in map cases from time to time. It is for research purposes so a scan, copy or online resource is all I need, though I would not mind having the real thing.

 

Anybody have any leads? Any suggestions or insight much appreciated.

 

If this should be in another part of the forum, moderators please move. Thanks-
