Difficulty in locating drawings after they were contributed to a wartime salvage effort, but confirming the job is proceeding.

Chassis 28

To: Psn. from Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer}

Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 3/h. 2.11.43.

Your Reference: Psn. 2/MD. 29.10.43.

I am doing my best to get drawings but, as you can imagine, after four years of war, we are having no end of a tea-party sorting them out particularly in view of the fact that someone found our only set of prints and proudly contributed them to the local Salvage Week!

However, I think we have all the drawings, and the job is going on with the maximum amount of expedition.
