I have been told by Ronald the owner
of this set that:-
"In 1998 when I was on a big fare in
Belgian, a was walking around I found the brown telephone box on a table,
when I opened it I was very surprised what a found, I old paraset. (MKIIV)
In the telephone box was more, two letters in the France league and a magazine
of the USRA, ( Union des Services de Renseignement et d'Action ) dated March
1946 No1 , and also a morse key from a B2 (Type 3 mk II).
The guy behind the table said to me that
he had found all the equipment in a house in Brussels. When I was home I
cleaned the whole paraset, but then I want to know what the two letters
said.
As I do not know the the France language
I don't understand and I don't read it.
A translation of the two letters
says:
The first letter is from unknown Jewish
man sent to the Ambassador,
The first letter is sent to Monsieur
L.Doc of the Ambassador Der Nederlands, with the question of agent Georges
Fauconnier was in the resistance in the war because person in hiding give
him money to keep it before after the war.
Monsieur L.Doc of the Ambassador Der
Nederlands send them a letter back with the answer that he was a good
agent.
Monsieur L.Doc will be helping him, to
find the owner of the money so that it can be given back.
I don't know if the found the owner of
the money was found and if the family had survived the Second World War
Agent Georges Fauconnier was working
with this early paraset for the USRA the whole war.
The paraset with power supply in metal
box was used in northern part of Brabant, then a part of the Netherlands.
(Now Brabant is a province of Flanders, one of the three regions of
Belgium.)
I will try to found more history about
is set."
