Project Aphrodite was about using planes full of bombs as remote control missiles. The primary target, IIRC, was submarine pens. Pilots had to get the plane in the air and on course, then bailed out. Kennedy didn't survive. 19. Ball Turret, as described, under the belly of the plane. Good for Ed, Ozi and Game. It was a dangerous place to be. 20. We eventually got this, thanks to SVC - not only had Roosevelt died and been replaced by Truman at Potsdam, but during the conference, Atlee replaced Churchill as PM. 21. Churchill, touting his popularity 22. Wow, lots of you knew all about Doolittle's raid on Tokyo. 23 and 24 - Five know all about the Enola Gay and the A bomb and also MacArthur fading away. 25. "an Iron Curtain . ." Ed has it, at Westminster College in Missouri, by Churchill. I am delighted to have offered a quiz in honor of Wirechief's long effort to amuse and educate us all. [/QUOTE]
