Simon Trew Posted October 1, 2024 #1 Posted October 1, 2024 Three 1:25,000-scale defense overprint maps of Geilenkirchen and nearby areas. The one with the BLUE overprint is a British map from September or October 1944. The one with the RED overprint is a US Ninth Army map from early November 1944. And the one with the mixed RED and BLUE overprint is the edition of 15 November 1944 (just before the start of Operation Queen). Note how in the last, all the German defenses south of Geilenkirchen are no longer shown, because by then they were already in US hands. Hope some people find these interesting.
