When You’re Ready for a REAL Compass This is identical in every way to the compass you would be issued in the U.S. Army or Marine Corps, except that it contains no tritium. Instead, the face is phosphorescent – hold a flashlight over it for five seconds or so, and it will glow in the dark for about ten minutes. Even older folks with bad night vision will be able to read it just as well at night as during the day. The anodized aluminum finish looks very military, and the pouch is olive drab with a big “US” in military block…
Used this in the Army I’ve relied on this instrument in pass or fail land navigation tests that have covered several kilometers in thick woods. I have used it at night for the same tests. It is accurate, and soldiers depend on it for mission critical tasks.
