| N792 G.103-100-11-15 (H 828) (12 DDE) M/10.36 Vanadium Aluminium Alloy. Wov. 22.11.15. Mcr6/L221115 In reference to your memos Na{Mr Nadin}9/S191115 and Na{Mr Nadin}3/S191115, kindly note that we have not been able to make a start on this job because the Stores will not allow the material to leave the stores, as they state they have most explicit instructions from you that they are to hold this material in there until you personally instruct them to release it. If you therefore wish this job to be proceeded with, will you kindly issue instructions to the stores, and also instructions to us for Mr Kesterton explaining how this material is to be treated. [Handwritten note] Mcr. Wov Nov 22.15 I have given Stores no such instructions. Show him this Sheet if any difficulty. Treat as ordinary alum' alloy. [Signature] Nov 22.15 | ||
