Having discovered the US military were developing airships to loiter over the target area, the RAF were keen to show that they too were at the cutting edge of technology.
How did that happen ?

A young Pilot Officer Prune
Was posted to fly a balloon
Ascent was his fashion
But donuts his passion
Poor Prune's balloon sank far too soon

"And now what??"
"Oh, we shoot arrows at the target on the side of your balloon Sir"

Fans of low-level aviaton photography had plenty of time to catch the latest RAF equipment as it screamed down the valley.
