About this map

Nauset Beach Light stands as a primary navigational beacon on this 1942 Army Map Service survey, which details the outer coastline of Cape Cod during the early years of World War II. The map emphasizes the maritime and coastal defense infrastructure of the era, marking multiple Life Saving Stations such as Cahoon Hollow L S S, Nauset Beach L S S, and Orleans Beach L S S. These locations, alongside the Chatham Air Port, reflect the strategic importance of the peninsula's eastern edge.
