Hi chaps
In Lt Col Eric Wakeling's autobiography, The Lonely War, he recalls defuzing a stick of 10 SC50s with (15) fuzes, apart from the last one, which, interestingly, had a (17) in it (but no Zus40).
Have you ever heard of a (17) in such a small bomb as an SC50? Could one fit in (the SC50 was 8 inches wide)? Has he recalled wrongly?
Cheers
Austin
