and since the majority of German Ordnance dropped in England was General Purpose HE, my guess is that it is a SC-500.
Any takers?
Great link, Willie! LOTS of good pics there!
Thanks!

Yeah, my friend who served in the recon platoon in Kosovo, told me that one day locals came to them, and asked for a crane.
They wanted to move Nato´s 500lb bomb, which was dropped in the middle of their field, and didn´t explode... When recce arrived on the scene, they found out that locals had tried to chop it in the smaller portions with a chainsaw, so that it would be easier to move...
Like i always say to my conscripts: "if you dont know what you are doing.... DONT DO IT!"
