Military - Explosion - Heligoland

Spectators aboard HM Fleet minesweeper "Albacore" watch the great pall of smoke rise into the air from a distance of 9 miles, as Heligoland, Germany's North Sea island fortress, is destroyed. The 6,700 tonnes of explosives created one of the biggest single non-nuclear detonations in history. (Photo by PA Images via Getty Images)
