Safe Breakers At H-Bomb Base Raid Incident
About 6 500 guards faced a raid on the Sculthorpe Norfolk US air base as men tried to dislodge a break in the strongroom of the American Express Exchange office. Police and fire crews used oxy acetylene gear to force the doors open while officials said it was unlikely any money was stolen. The strongroom held July pay packets and other funds.
