hi new to this and i need your help. I had a relative who was the bomb aimer for the first UK atom bomb dropped from a aircraft, it is mentioned somewhere on this forum by “papa lima”. He did Operation Buffalo he then went on to do Operation Grapple. I am trying to find out what happened to that aircraft and I can tell you it’s tough going I have only just managed to find a picture on the web of it. All our photographs were destroyed. Any help in finding out what happened to it would be greatfully recieved.
