[Milsurplus] Going though my father's Army papers there is a Certificate for his attendance at SCR 268 School!

[Hubert Miller]

I don't know how widespread this nickname was, but my father referred to the 268 radar as "the laundry machine."
He was part of the gun crew of one battery of 4 90mm guns controlled by the radar.  ( The unit radio jeep had the
AN/VRC-1 ). He said by the time of the invasion of southern France, "there was nothing left to shoot down", slight
exaggeration, so the guns were given to France. I wonder about the use of the 268 radar through the rest of the war.
Maybe the newer radar, number forgotten by me, supplanted the 268 ?
