How really interesting, Allan. Thank you for posting! I hope your trip to Barbados goes really well (I assume you will be visiting the HARP site while there?).

I was responsible for bore sighting the barrel ,as well as strain gauges and velocity probes.My father was responsible for the high speed photography. His name was Walter Clark and this is his son Allan Clark.
