Wasn't Tallboy one of Barnes-Wallace's little projects?

I stand forever impressed by the people who have to deal with these things, especially if after lying at the bottom of the cut for 75 years. Whatever it is they're getting paid .... it isn't enough.

It could have been worse, if the RAF had carried a Grand Slam bomb to attack the Battleship Lutzow.
Btw - The mission, in April 1945, was successful and another Tallboy sunk it with a near miss. Our bomb? I'm glad that they offer to let us have it back.
