Default Thanks for sharing-

Thanks for sharing that one the program UXB was one I've always enjoyed.

I'll include both of these two "Events" in our local MV Club newsletter just as you say "Just a Reminder" .

If you want a really good book on the topic of UXBs look for "Unexploded Bomb" by Major A. B. Hartley - there is a later book that was written at the time of the UXB series on BBC which is an inferior retelling of what was in Hartley's book.

Amazing the condition of the parachute bomb and the size of the boom, bet the seagulls had a good time.

Cheers Phil
