    Bill,

    I have a map which corresponds to the area you want, but I will need to get it scanned - my scanner is A4 and the map is A2 I believe.

    Not sure if this will be any help.

    It's from the Appendix of the 4th Beach Group War Diary (WO 169/13673) i uploaded to my Gallery albums a while back.

    Thank you guys - what a great website this.

    Your leads have found me maps with military grids on which will help me when I get the September 1943 War Diary of the 2/5 Queens.
    I hope to find where Sgt tom White's bren carrier overturned on the 9/9/43 and he was captured.

    Mark - thank you for thinking about scanning A2 size perhaps hold fire until I know more about the location then scan A4

    Thank you both for your help, Greatly appreciated

    I had reprints of some of the Salerno maps for sale - may still have some left - Can look if you are interested.

    Bill,
    This is the collection of maps I have, and they were from Packhow75, and were really worth the expenditure. If you want a physical copy, these are a great option.
