[SEL] Biggest part you've lost?

[Jack Watson]

This is a copy of a twx (teletype) we received at the NASA satellite 
tracking station at Cooby Creek, dated March, 1970:

"Subj: Search for missing property items:

All stations are requested to institute a physical on-site search for 
the following items:

1. Diesel generator set, Model GUJ JSGAGO1, Serial number 9, NASA 
property tag No. 205532, value $20,000.00
2. Diesel generator unit, Model USC M7, Serial number 3429, NASA tag 
205533, value $12,000.00

Results are to be reported by teletype to code 539 on or before March 
25, 1970

Goddard Logistics."

We all thought it was an early April Fool's Day joke, but it turned out 
to be ridgiddy didge (Oz for kosher)

Never did hear if they turned up somewhere . . .
