Soldier Invents Plotting Fan For Mortar Fire Control
Sgt. Gibbons of Co. M 26th Infantry in Bamberg Germany devised a plotting fan device faster than the M10 chart to determine initial fire direction for 81mm mortars. The transparent protractor like gadget aligns with a map to yield azimuth range and bearing and is used at the fire direction center. The tool, sealed in yards, records data for any target within mortar range and aids rapid defensive plotting when only a base point is available. Married to Donna J Gibbons, he has served since November 1950.
