Syd Webb of Toronto writes that in 1944 during a lull in front-line fighting in Holland, an infantry signaller of D Co., Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, was ordered to submit a list of equipment required to ensure continued communications with battalion HQ.
He sent in this:
1 new radio set
1 new radio earphones set
1 new set of batteries
1 new set of radio replacement tubes
1 new signaller
We don’t know whether there is any connection, but Webb was an infantry signaller with D Co., Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders.
