Description

"UXB" is a historical British military training film documenting the struggle against Unexploded Bombs (UXBs) during WWII. Centred on bomb disposal efforts in London, it demonstrates how Nazi ordinance can be identified and disarmed. But also the precautions that had to be taken. This is not the popular 1979 TV series Danger UXB. Instead, this film addresses real bomb disposal procedures, highlighting the dangers of delay-action fuzes. It also details the civil defence bomb-finding procedures and roles developed during the Blitz: Reconnaissance. Identification. Reporting. Prioritising. The range of German bombs dropped on Britain is examined in detail, outlining their design and construction techniques.
