New Zealand Completed Requests / Fifth Column Incident on Railway Between Christchurch and Lyttelton *COMPLETED*
« on: Monday 08 March 10 04:09 GMT (UK) »
Hi - does anyone know of a Fifth Column incident which occurred whilst surfacemen were working on the railway lines near Heathcote Valley during WW2.
This apparently involved the regular gang of surfacemen and a fellow who was manpowered to the gang. The regular gang of men dealt with the incident through official channels.
There was a piece on google concerning this but I am unable to trace it again. There were no names and it was possibly a government report, released after a time limit. Welcome any replies. Thanks. Dinny.
