Given that Operation names were not supposed to give any hint of their intended purpose, I have always wondered about Jericho. Could not German Intelligence have put two and two together and looked around their estate for walls that might be possible targets? Of course it might have been a cunning plan worthy of Baldrick that the last thing they should worry about were walls, given the deviousness of the Brits!

Looking forward to your tale, Geriaviator. The Empire and Dominion volunteers that flew with the RAF were an essential part of the hard fought victories over European Fascism and Japanese Nationalism.
