Buoyed up by the success of asking this list about the history of using the symmedian point...(Thanks Herbert!) my next question question.. Do we know of any techniques in celestial navigation that were kept secret by a government, navy (or in the 20th C air force) at the time? One would think some ideas were good enough to give a tactical advantage in war. Bill Lionheart
