Translated text

On a sunny day, the patrol stands in an open space, each scout several paces apart from the next.

Each, using a watch (see p. 42), determines the cardinal directions and places his staff on the ground in the North–South direction. The patrol leader checks the position of the staffs with a compass.

Similarly, the patrol is ordered to determine the North–South direction with a staff in the evening by the North Star.
