Re: Aberdeen scotland - Bombing WW2

Thanks bruce

I got a reply from the MOD about WW2 bombing in Aberdeen, but it basically said along the lines of public order, safety etc etc they can't release the info. Basically by plotting bomb patterns, it could expose the location of UXBs that are still there and for reasons such as access, low risk, safer to leave etc. Zetica have a map, but that only shows bomb concentrations of ww2 and summerises 1 in 10 bombs were UXBs.

There is a list of UXBs in one London suberb, and when published created a bit of a panic, so i suppose they learned their lesson!

I'll have a trawl in the main library at the weekend, see what else i can dig up
