Len Trim Posted 24 July , 2009 Share Posted 24 July , 2009 Hi all, just returned from a few days on the battlefields. Can I just say how wonderful Linesman was for finding my way about the battlefields especially Loos. Standing on the Hohenzollern Redoubt for instance. Wonderful, despite the nettles! What a commanding position. No wonder we got Hell. Linesman also very useful at Gommecourt. Amazingly enough the wood is still practically the same shape from some views anyway. Well done Guy Smith.

Ian Riley Posted 24 July , 2009 Share Posted 24 July , 2009 Steve, 'Linesman' is a GPS system linked to trenchmaps and (I think) modern maps operated through a PDA (I think that's a personal digital assistant). Don't own one myself but my PDA normally sits in the passenger seat waving the map and moaning at me to slow down. If you search the Forum for just 'linesman' you get about 13 pages of threads and this one looks good Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
