Clements commanded a platoon which was given the task of occupying a position on the feature North of Grupont dominating the area in which the 12th and 13th Parachute Bns were operating. The patrol reached its objective by 0300 hrs and took up a position as ordered. During the following nine hours the platoon lay up in a wood on the feature, which was also occupied by the enemy, reporting enemy movements and inflicting casualties including the killing of the officers of a recce group which approached the position.At about 1200 hrs the platoon came under accurate fire from close range. Lt. Clements, although fully exposed to enemy fire, personally passed the necessary fire orders for the artillery to engage the area held by the enemy. The enemy then brought up at least one Tiger tank which engaged the area held by the platoon. By this time the platoon was coming under accurate fire from the rear as well as the front. Lt. Clements then decided that the platoon must withdraw. He organised the withdrawal down the very exposed slope of the feature.At the first ...rd he was wounded in the stomach. Although he could not move himself he continued to command the platoon, and issued necessary orders for the remainder to withdraw. Throughout this period the platoon had no food and was exposed to very severe weather conditions. It was entirely due to the fine leadership, determination and example of this officer that the platoon carried out its task and was able to withdraw when this task had been completed.'D.C.M.

[Lot of 2] Map No. 1 [and] Map No. 2 Reconnaissance and Survey of a Railway Route from Mississippi River near 35th ParallelÂ…to Pacific Ocean These are the larger maps that were included in the rare 8vo Pacific Railway atlas. They should not be confused with the same titled, smaller and much more common maps from the 4vo volume. This pair of matching maps are the result of the explorations and surveys of Lieut. A.W. Whipple and Lieut. J.C. Ives, Topographical Engineers, and A.H. Campbell, Civil Engineer. Wheat says Whipple ""had demonstrated that the route which he had surveyed was practicable for a railroad, and the Santa Fe Railroad now traverses much of it Â… This is an important map, in its two parts, and reflects great credit upon Whipple and his entire party."" The first map extends from the vicinity of Memphis and Vicksburg to the Rio Grande valley at Santa Fe and Albuquerque. Locates forts Arbuckle, Washita, Smith and numerous Indian villages. Drawn by A. Schimmelfinnig. Map No. 2 continues from Albuquerque westward to Los Angeles via Cajon Pass. Also locates forts, Indian lands, pueblos such as Zuni, and the gold and silver mines in New Mexico. Drawn by M. von Hippel. The route of the exploring parties is delineated on both with each camp site indicated. The size given is approximate for each map: together they are over 12 feet in length! These maps are uncommon and are rarely offered together. Issued folding with light offsetting, numerous short splits at fold intersections, and toning along the folds. Map No. 1 has a 3"" binding tear at left. 26.5"" W x 75"" H Whipple, Amiel Weekes 1855

Air Navigation Map No. 32 (Experimental) Phoenix, Arizona to San Diego, Calif. In 1921, the United States Army Air Corps initiated a compressive evaluation of aeronautical charts in an effort to develop a standardized map for aerial navigation. Based upon this study, the Air Corps issued 63 air navigation maps covering most of the military routes in the United States. Prior to 1926, these maps were jointly compiled by the Geological Survey and U. S. Army Engineer Reproduction Plant. By 1926, the preparation of air maps shifted to the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey (under the Commerce Department) with the passage of the Air Commerce Act. Maps from this point on were intended to merge the growing commercial airways system with the military network. This map covers the area from Phoenix west to San Diego and shows elevation and contours, cities and towns, rivers, roads and railroads. Airfield classifications are shown with different symbols including seaplane landings. True north and magnetic north are depicted. On a scale of 8 miles per inch. Dissected into two panels and backed in linen. A colorful example backed in linen with light toning at bottom and an ex-library stamp on verso. 42.5"" W x 10.3"" H U.S. Corps of Engineers, 1924

Reconnaissance of the Western Coast of the United States from San Francisco to San Diego by the Hydrographic Party Under the Command of Lieut. James Alden U.S.N. Assistant This terrific chart delineates the coast and is from the first official scientific reconnaissance of the Pacific coastal areas. It is one of three prepared by Lieutenant James Alden for this important survey. This sheet covers the region from the Mexican boundary to Point Reyes. It outlines the coastal littoral, shows dangerous reefs and shoals, gives offshore bathymetric soundings, plus general and specific harbor sailing instructions. The most impressive feature is the 17 views of entrances and promontories along this rugged coastline - among them Santa Barbara, Catalina Harbor, and the entrance to San Francisco Bay. The map was drawn by W.M. McMurtie and engraved by G. McCoy. Engraving of the views is also by McCoy with S.V. Hunt.
