Guest Posted 20 November , 2020 Share Posted 20 November , 2020 Charlie, Thanks mate its an area to check. The Germans had a few units in Palestine, but sound ranging I've not seen before? Units like Gebirgs-Blinker-Züge 27 and 28 (Lichtsignalzug 27 and 28) Lichtmeßtrupp 170 - Lichtsignalzug Divisions-Funker-Abteilung 1724 Light Funkstation No 9 Blinker-Zug 1730 S.B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
