Question while watching 'Gravity'...

In between the amazing scenery shots of the earth and Sandra Bullock's sports bra I got a little bored in the movie 'Gravity', and I started to think how cool a war movie would be set on the moon. Obviously there are the added logistics if getting air and water as well as soldiers up there, firearms would still work (with 8x the range)... Lots of considerations, but the one That's really got me thinking is how to navigate on the moon?

Compasses wouldn't work, there's no GPS, the earth is one point of reference but would the stars be visible during the 'day'?
