@philritter21 Back in 1980, my platoon sergeant told me about being at two of the "Plumbob" tests in 1957. I also knew a man who was at "Crossroads" in 1946. I have been interested in post war testing for many years, too, and it was a special treat to know these two men and hear their stories.
Oh man, thank you for this. Pretty much one of the only shots Ive never seen in 15 years of interest in nuclear weapons. Where the hell did you find this?
@Assi2004 Wow, great picture, thanks for the link.
