Hi,
Anyone ever heard about this unit?
It was located in Den Haag or Rijswijk in 1941.
Gr, Tim

Hi,
As the name implies it was the central repair unit of a the Ln.Rgt. At unit level they could only replace broken equipment and replace defect components. Actual repairs had to be done at the unit we discuss.

Hi Tim,
Luftgau-Nachrichten-Regiment Holland was formed in July 1940 and there were radar stations in The Netherlands from 1941. Please see:
