the published in the print version of the Union-Tribune.
The Union-Tribune will indefinitely stop publishing the Standing the Watch map, which shows the at-sea locations of San Diego-based Navy ships, because of tightened military security in the aftermath of the recent terrorist attacks.

The Standing The Watch Map
An Internet adaptation of the map appears here, with
approximations of the group locations. The larger, detailed map, published in the
Union-Tribune, is available from the newspaper's back copies department in Mission Valley:
The San Diego Union-Tribune
350 Camino de la Reina
San Diego, Calif. 92108

Map ordering info via e-mail: lynn.black@uniontrib.com.
Using a grid on the full paper map, anyone can follow the progress of the Naval groups as they sail
to and from the Persian Gulf. On Sundays, Tuesdays and Fridays, SignOnSanDiego and the
Union-Tribune (on Page B-2) publish the ships' location as of the day before.
The paper map uses a grid system that gives readers the ships' general location without compromising
security.
