English term or phrase: GYRO CRS/BRG - M
Hi all,

Context:
The document is a log-navigation data sheet.
https://media.defense.gov/2017/Oct/23/2001830891/-1/-1/0/CG_...
The one I have is already filled in.
It´s a sheet where the information about a vessel has been written.

Under the GYRO CRS/BRG column, there are some numbers, but also a letter "M" in some lines.

The term:
"M"

What could it mean? Or do you think I should just write it the same, since it might be a universal unit of measure?

Thank you for your help
