General knowledge concerning the use of using gee for navigating? ‘Gee gen’ ?

'Gee gen' would certainly make sense to me, as 'gen' was a frequently used term in those days......

I've come across an RAF publication called "Ground Gen for Airmen" all about living in the RAF.
Was there such a thing as "bombing ground gen"?

Hi
I came across the phrase "bombing g.g." regarding RAF WW2 Navigator training. I assume the "g.g." is an abbreviation. Does anyone know what this might be referring to? If you would be so kind would you mind explaining?
