PN: Have you got a date for the Lincoln 'wide' release at Wainfleet? In about 1955 the RAF missed our house by about 50 yards at approx. 6.00 pm one evening. The next morning I remember what seemed to me to be a huge crater in the field opposite our house, and I credit this formative event (as well as all the aircraft visiting the range every day) for my interest in joining the RAF.

If you have any other info on the Wainfleet bombings then I would be most interested to hear.
