Excerpt from Sketching Methods
A military sketch is a report of the topographic features of a section of country in which certain conventional signs are used as substitutes for words. Its accuracy and completeness are affected by the time available, the instruments at hand, and the tactical conditions under which the sketcher is working. The difference between a map and a sketch must always be in mind.
