We didn't get Gee until late in 1944 when we flew our first Gee
mission..Hated
it because we couldn't see the damage we had (or had not) done. I remember
the
briefing before the first Gee mission. we were ttoldf the Germans knew
nothing
about Gee.

Art that Intel Weinie was playing with you - the Germans knew enough about
GEE
that by 1944, they had already lost more than one Luftwaffe aircraft that was
confirmed to carry a GEE reciever! One of the few times in WWII that both
sides were using a piece of the same electronic gear, for the same purpose.
They built "Rotterdam" / H2S duplicates as well.
