Raper's maps are student examples of nautical charts he produced whilst on board HMS Sirius. All naval officers, particularly those sailing into uncharted waters, were required to draw these maps. All officers, including midshipmen, were required to undertake studies in navigation, astronomy and drafting to enable them to prepare charts of oceans, new coastlines and harbours (with soundings) for future reference.

Pacific Naval Battles in World War II - English
URL: http://www.combinedfleet.com/map.htm

The Pacific War was the largest naval conflict in history. Across the huge expanses of the Pacific, the two most powerful navies in the world found themselves locked in a death struggle. The war was fought in every possible climate, from Arctic conditions in the Aleutians, to the appalling heat and swelter of the South Pacific. Every conceivable type of naval activity was represented: carrier aviation battles, surface engagements, bitterly fought night-fights, the largest amphibious landings of the entire war, and the stealthy, brutal battles waged by and against submarines.
