WWII double-sided silk Chindit Panic map 'North Burma' and 'Central Burma', with notation in ink, 983331 Sgt. Murphy, Wingates Army, 1944, size of scarf 59cm x 72cm, This orange escape map was unique to the Chindits, the purpose of which is explained in Richard Rhodes James's book Chindit; Above there came the sound of planes and a Dakota appeared over the jungle followed by several others.

As a matter of fact when we moved off so hurriedly a message was on its way from the General giving us permission to withdraw. We produced our 'panic maps' (silk emergency maps of bright orange colour) and started waving them. The first few lanes did not see us and we watched the parachutes floating into the hands of the Japs. But one sharp-eyed pilot noticed the streaks of orange in the nullah and emptied his load beside us. Rippingale has further added a note Cloth Map issued to the Chindits - 1944.
