Vangenuai technique 103 Sqdn.RAF ?????

[Marcel Hogenhuis]

Hello,

Has everyone ever heard of the 'Vangenuai technique' as referred to in the ORB of 103 Sqdn.RAF, 20th December 1942 ?
How it worked or was meant to work, cannot be derived from the context unfortunately...

A search in Google resultet in zero hits (!). Hoping that someone might respond, many thanks in advance!

Hi Marcel,

You could not find the reference because it should be spelled "Wanganui".
See this site for an explanation:

FYI Wanganui is a place in New Zealand.

Regards,

Mark

Hello Mark,

Thank you for this superfast and most clearifying answer !!! A good friend of me recently returned from the Nat.Archives London and copied from the ORB pages this word, apparantly written down phonetically then because the entries itself are type machine written.

Now that I have the right spelling, searching for more details will be much easier!

Again thank you very much! All the best,
