Have just found a carrier bag full of photos and amongst them were my collection of photos from Op Bushel. I have posted a couple on here before but these are some new ones.

This was an airdrop of some roses(?) to nurses or could have been nuns at an aid station that happened to be under the route for that day (between 7 and 27 Nov 85) Hercules would have been either XV306 or XV297. The airdrop consisted of opening the para door and the ALM launching them out in a polystyrene box. Hopefully brightened up someone's day

Red on



Green on



More to come....
