“The emphasis on radio equipment surprised me until Mr Lyttelton explained how important radio is tn modern warfare. He reminded me that the latest type of Lancaster bomber, four engined bomber —one of the best equipped aeroplanes in the world—carries no less than twelve radio sets, and and can’t do its job effectively with less. Naval vessels are also extensively equipped with radio these days and a modern army moves and operates on radio instructions which are carried down from headquarters to each tank, each gun and transport truck.”—George Darling in ‘A Nation at Work.’ a 8.8. C. short wave series. *
