Your Ref.: HQTS I25O-36 (Sigs 2k) May 10, I963. Dear Q£S^J% Thank you for your letter of May 1, 1963> together with the summary of the discussions which we had on Thursday, April 18, 1963. I can find very few discrepancies in the summary except, perhaps, with reference to PICCOLO in paragraph 6(b) where the position really is that we would like to send an engineer with the PICCOLO equipment some time during the Summer and that it was hoped that it would be possible to arrange for a visit of Mr. Robin, Chief Engineer, Diplomatic Wireless Service, at about the same time. Also in paragraph 7(cQ - what had previously been stated here was that it is hoped it will be possible to design a multi-channel PICCOLO system to uss on the circuit. I realise these are minor points, but Mr. Robin is, at present, very fully committed and it is almost impossible to make a firm date for his visit. I was also very happy to renew our acquaintance and, as usual, very much enjoyed my short visit. Yours sincerely, (W.J. Shjbpe) Colonel P.D. Smith, Director of the Royal Canadian Corps of Signals, Department of National Defence, Army Headquarters, OTTAWA, Ontario, Canada. y X.T. <= o u ~ BIOS * USEGRET -^y A M ^ U*t vs..- „$qi*vm&>iki_____M-H9 /7hy a 000176 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
