The Escape and Evasion / Operational Navigational Charts (ONCs) are used by UK forces. They are maps produced by the American Aeronuatical Chart and Information Center on a scale of 1:1,000,000, designed for pilots to identify topographical features but also as Escape and Evasion maps for downed crew. They are made of artificial silk to be tough, quiet and resilient and to be easily folded and pocketed or otherwise hidden. This one was produced in the middle of the Dhofar Rebellion (1962-1976).
