Office of Strategic Services Silk Escape and Evasion Map

Artifact Details

In addition to the map, the silk sheer includes a translated message asking for help with returning to a military base.

Printed on silk, which is durable, this map doesn’t rustle at night and can be folded up very compactly to be more easily concealed. The map is printed with waterproof dyes so the colors would not run if it got wet.
