I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

Nothing new here.

A Bomber Command Bombing Comp had a comms coding element. Each aircraft would receive a coded question. Each crew had to decode the question, determine the answer, encode it and transmit it. The shortest time got the highest score.

Our heros, with Dave *r*m as the AEO, prepared a series of coded replies to the standard range of questions. The AEO took down the coded message; the plotter decoded the message and the Nav Rad selected the correct encoded reply.

No sooner had DA acknowledged when he started to send the reply. The time was brilliant butit was the wrong message
