Someone gave a 2LT a map.  Could be the LT who is giving orders to...
--your unit
--supporting artillery
--your reinforcements
--the supply convoy
--the airstrike
--the unit assigned to protect your flank
--the unit which is surrounded by enemy and you have to go rescue
them, except they're not where you were told they were
--the enemy unit, which has blundered into your operation even though
you know it's supposed to be 60km away
--the civilians
--the neutral observer
--the meteorologist ("good weather predicted for your area, torrential
downpours expected on the other side of the mountains.	Why are all
the labels on this map printed upside down?")
--knowing Murphy: all of the above
