    Fascinating relics there prospecteur, I love the old phonetic abbreviation for B..Bravo (Beer) on the plate.

    Hi Johann,exciting finds, I wonder if one of these trucks may have been
    a R.A.F service or radio truck,as the terminal block 5c/430,is widely
    used in RAF aircraft of the time.
    I have an identical phonetic plate and wonder what its function was?
