This case was pracical shown in the American signal-school for Europe in Ansbach to 25 representative of the West German press who partly came there by US.airplanes. From anywhere in the world it will be possible to get the connection to the Pentagon the American war-office within 30 minutes (showing the sketch right on our picture). The soldier holds the newest and less heavy wireless-speaker in his hand. It is good for a distance of nearly 10 kilometers. the price is 2.400 German marks.
