military bases

Postby killer_ace3 on Tue Oct 21, 2008 10:07 pm

we have so many maps of war fronts yet nothing military on the home front. what about a map of a military base. something like ft benning, ft knox, ft bragg.
u could make places like the jump towers, the rifle ranges, the grenade range, the chow hall (if in a seperate building), the different barracks, the pt fields, and the chapel


i went to benning so im biased to that one. heres just a few links ta try fer pics. im sure someone could find more, even better ones with a little work.

I think there might be copyright issues, you might have to contact someone and get permission to make a map of this, just like The Citadel ;)

I think this is a good idea and yes it might have some copyright issues. Also a good one is Parris Island a marine bootcamp.

No there won't be any copyright issues. What belongs to the US government, belongs to the people. This is the case with all created works, papers, symbols, etc. Public domain and all that.

Ft Benning would likely be a bland map... Lots of woods...

You're right. I've never been to Fort Benning. The sticker on my windshield must get me on to some other military base that my father was stationed at for 5 years and the girl I date lived in for the same amount of time. Are you denying that Ft. Benning does not consist of a shit-ton of woods? Observe:

How about CFB Borden? It's a hellishly big base...takes twenty minutes to double from the shacks to the base store.
