Nant y Gro dam wales

[Marcel]

In 1942, british scientist Barnes Wallis did a live experiment on a small dam in Wales, called the Nant Y Gro. This was to see how a dam could be breached. This led to the famous Dam-buster raid on the Moehnetal sperre and the Eder tal sperre in 1943. I found a film of the destruction.View attachment nant512.wmv

Good stuff Marcel. I have that footage somewhere, plus some 'stills' taken of the detonations.
