    Another "Silverplate" B-29 (B-29-40-MO), USAAF Ser. No. 44-27354, named "Big Stink." It later would be re-named "Dave's Dream" (in the memory of bombardier Dave Stemple, killed in the crash of a B-29 [USAAF Ser. No. 42-65387]). On July 1, 1946, this B-29 (now as "Dave's Dream") would drop a "Fat Man"-type atomic bomb used in Test Able of Operation Crossroads at Bikini Atoll.
