Type 1 US Forestry. Got 4 of them on a GSA auction in 1981. Only kept one, sigh.

I've got the Curta Calculator Type 1 - used it in the early 1970s for TSD (Time Speed Distance)  Road Rallies.   It is very handy and easy to use and helped keep us on time as we traveled over hill and dale in search of the next checkpoint.
