FFE:2 Correction and Fire (page 24). Both of the arrows out of the box "Disregarding SMOKE, does Observer have LOS to Base Level of FFE hex?" are labeled "No." The box "You must Correct the FFE:2 (Mandatory Correction) or Cancel the Fire mission.." has an extra period and is missing the "Correct" arrow. The box "Do you wish to Cancel FFE:2?" is missing a "Yes" arrow. Footnote g, "chosse" is misspelled.
Converting and/or Correcting a SR (page 23). The second arrow out of the "Correction is mandatory if SR is not Canceled" is not labeled.
Artillery Request (AR) and Spotting Round (SR) placement (page 22). On the Accuracy dr chart, note that no drm apply to a pre-registered hex [C1.732].
FFE:C Procedures. On the IR chart, the decision "Did Observer have LOS to a Gunflash or an Known enemy unit?", first "an" should be "a", but more importantly, the two arrows labeled "yes" and "no" imply that the player only has one option based on his answer to the decision point. Even if the Observer has LOS to a Gunflash or a KEU, the "no" method of placement (place IR in any hex that is a multiple of six hexes away) may be chosen.
Also in general throughout the OBA flowchart, the official ones distinguish between actions that have no decision and decisions by enclosing actions in eight-sided boxes (boxes with their corners "clipped," e.g. "Place AR" under "Contact and Access") while decisions are in rectangular boxes. The Rat Pocket Charts need not use that exact style, but it would be nice if the two different behaviors were distinguished somehow (e.g. one marked with double border or some other way).
