One of Hennessy's notes linking these primary sources wonders if Ministers generally knew, specifically that Red Snow, thus Yellow Sun Mk.2 and Blue Steel's warhead, was in essence US Mk.28, so hardly as "independent" as Conservatives were (are) wont to assert. Wynn's Official History has Macmillan, during the Cuban Crisis, asking how long until US stores could be made available to RAF, and being surprised to find "they were here" (and had been so since May,1958, at his personal behest!)
