Translated map title and key — not a full transcription of every symbol.

“Seventh Army situation. As at 7 October–10 October 1942.” [The end date has been added by hand.]

Legend: red = Army reserves; black = Army Group reserves. [The supplied scan is monochrome, so the original colour distinction cannot be recovered reliably.]

The map shows the Seventh Army area in Normandy and Brittany, with Jersey, Guernsey and Sark offshore. The 319th Division is marked by the Channel Islands. Mainland coastal formations include the 320th and 716th Divisions in Normandy and the 709th, 335th, 257th and 333rd Divisions farther west and south.

Common labels: “Div.” = division; “Pz.” = Panzer/armoured; “Korück” = commander of the Army rear area. Headquarters and formation symbols, boundaries, locations and handwritten amendments should be read directly from the embedded map. Dense or faint labels have not been converted into an invented narrative.
