About late February or early March, 1945 a balloon came down in a field of grazing cattle. The rancher living nearby heard the cattle bawling, went to investigate and saw a few cows tangled in the rigging of what he thought was a weather balloon. Working quickly, he freed the cows and draped the balloon and lines over the nearest fence. He then removed what he assumed was a recording device and threw it in the toolbox of his truck. A week or two later while in Foremost shopping he paid a visit to the local RCMP Detachment. Storming into Cpl. John Wilson's office, he banged the brass box down on Wilson's desk, telling Wilson what he and the Weather Office could do with their scientific apparatus. After finishing his flowery list of instructions the rancher then left. A somewhat confused Wilson phoned S/Sgt Buchanan at Lethbridge with a description of the brass box and requested instructions. Buchanan very diplomatically informed Wilson that he was holding a demolition charge which, if it exploded, probably would level the detachment office. Buchanan also observed, with tongue in cheek, that it might also damage the phone. He asked Wilson to put the box in a secure place until the BID team could remove it. Buchanan and the BID Team arrived shortly and placed the demolition charge in their bomb-disposal trailer, then with Wilson paid the rancher a visit to recover the balloon. This recovery was recorded as Foremost 20 March 1945. While there were no bombs attached to this balloon, about two weeks prior to the Foremost incident a sheep herder moving his flock to a new location heard a loud explosion around noon. Returning to his shack that evening he was startled to find it demolished. Mr. Buchanan believes that the explosion and destruction of the sheep herder's line cabin were caused by a high-explosive bomb dropped by the balloon recovered at Foremost.
I always found these stories interesting.
Even if launched from West coast of Vancouver Island , those things traveled 8-900 km.
