May be of interest to some members, although I realise it is on the "fringe" of the board.

Thanks for posting this interesting news. I don't think CW are on the fringe of the board since I feel the RAF's involvement in chemical and biological weapons remains seriously under-researched. Thankfully, the RAF's capabilities were never used but there were certainly extensive provisions made for spraying mustard gas at least. There was also a plan for sowing anthrax-infected cattle feed over Germany. As far as I know, a definitive work on the RAF and CBW has yet to be written.
