U2/SR 71/Canberra

An interesting thread indeed! Dick Cloke and Martin Bee were at Cranwell just ahead of me. I often wondered what Martin did in the US. I never met him in later years, but a senior ex-Marham character, supposedly qualified as a navigator, let it out a few times that he flew "no log book" flights with Martin during a US tour. That begs the question what did they fly? The high altitude Canberras? Did Martin progress to the U2 from the Canberra or vice versa? The 'Special relationship' certainly covered some interesting assignments!!
