108 Dahlgren 



calculated what the safe separation distance should be, but, as I understand it, 

 they were right on the edge. The aircraft received a big dent in the side. 



Some of those devices were as long as this room, 6 feet in diameter, and 

 weighed an awful lot. They used one of the big bombers, and when they 

 released that thing from the airplane, the wings would flap. The wings were 

 tilted way up in the air and when the load was released, the wings would flap 

 and the plane would jump about 10 feet.
