Talking V-Bomber dispersal @ Bruntingthorpe

This thread appears longstanding, and not wishing to add to "confusion" but I can recall driving past the easterly end of Bruntingthorpe's runway in 1965 (ish) and seeing a Vulcan & a Victor, I think each with a Blue Steel underslung, engines idling and surrounded by what appeared to be armed RAF police..................but the memory is a little vague on the details. However these aircraft were definitely there around that time.
I used to cycle to Brunt in the late 50's early 60's planespotting B47's & B66's so although the USAF had left, used to periodically drive past.
Any one confirm this????????????????
